Cryobytes Cryoutilities and Bazzite OS
Hi,
looking into squeezing more performance from my Legion GO and ROG Ally both running Bazzite. On my Steam Deck i installed Cryoutilities tweaks, specifically Swap and memory management.
I was wondering what would be the alternatives i could do in Bazzite?
I specifically wonder about swap. Bazzite is using ZRam and now swap as far as i understand. I am currently trying to tun SW Jedi Survivor on Ally and it seem that it is running out of (v)Ram. I am thinking perhaps increasing Zram size would help?
Thanks

It would not, VRAM is never stored on swap
Additionally the use of cryo on Bazzite will break things badly, we do not ship a swap file of any kind
And the next release of SteamOS will match, killing Cryo for good.
You should have a max of 8GB VRAM usable to you
Thanks
Jedi Survivor seems to use over 10G ram and 7G vram in starting area. I have it running on 720p medium though, i'll try to lower the settings.
for increasing zram, there's this old script i made a while back. you can change the number from
2.0 to whatever multiplier you want (so 3x = 3.0)

haven't tested the script recentlyThanks a lot,i'll take a look
