  2. zram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zram

    Initially, zram had only the latter function, hence the original name "compcache" ("compressed cache"). Unlike swap, zram only uses 0.1% of the maximum size of the disk when not in use. [1] After four years in the Linux kernel's driver staging area, zram was introduced into the mainline Linux kernel in version 3.14, released on March 30, 2014. [2]

  3. bcache - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bcache

    bcache (abbreviated from block cache) is a cache mechanism in the Linux kernel's block layer, which is used for accessing secondary storage devices. It allows one or more fast storage devices, such as flash-based solid-state drives (SSDs), to act as a cache for one or more slower storage devices, such as hard disk drives (HDDs); this ...

  4. List of Linux distributions that run from RAM - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Linux...

    Puppy Linux 5.10 desktop running in RAM. This is a list of Linux distributions that can be run entirely from a computer's RAM, meaning that once the OS has been loaded to the RAM, the media it was loaded from can be completely removed, and the distribution will run the PC through the RAM only.

  5. tmpfs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tmpfs

    tmpfs is supported by the Linux kernel beginning in version 2.4 (January 4, 2001). [5] Linux tmpfs (previously known as shm fs) [6] is based on the ramfs code used during bootup and also uses the page cache, but, unlike ramfs, it supports swapping out less-used pages to swap space, as well as filesystem size and inode limits to prevent out-of ...

  6. dm-cache - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dm-cache

    Later, Joe Thornber, Heinz Mauelshagen and Mike Snitzer provided their own implementation of the concept, which resulted in the inclusion of dm-cache into the Linux kernel. dm-cache was merged into the Linux kernel mainline in kernel version 3.9, which was released on April 28, 2013. [6] [9]

  7. ext4 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4

    ext4 (fourth extended filesystem) is a journaling file system for Linux, developed as the successor to ext3.. ext4 was initially a series of backward-compatible extensions to ext3, many of them originally developed by Cluster File Systems for the Lustre file system between 2003 and 2006, meant to extend storage limits and add other performance improvements. [4]

  8. Bcachefs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bcachefs

    Bcachefs is a copy-on-write (COW) file system for Linux-based operating systems. Its primary developer, Kent Overstreet, first announced it in 2015, and it was added to the Linux kernel beginning with 6.7. [1] [2] It is intended to compete with the modern features of ZFS or Btrfs, and the speed and performance of ext4 or XFS.
