BUG: The bazzite-nvidia image has 4gb of zram swap space assigned by default

This is mentioned as a feature in the SteamDeck image in the readme but is not noted in the desktop bazzite features. (It is important and relevent for the SteamDeck, but not for every desktop) I assume this is an unintentional bug in this image, as setting an arbitrary swap space size of 4gb could cause performance issues on desktops with slower HDDs and lots of fast RAM.

zram is swap in-ram, not swap on drive

your /etc/systemd/zram-generator.conf should be exactly this if it is, you're following upstream behavior minus using zstd
