     I have a laptop with 16GB of ram. I configured it like this with 
the primary goal of not using swap at all. And my /tmp is a tmpfs with a 
4G limit. This allows me to use an SSD as hard disk drive. I didn't want 
to swap to an SSD.


     I have never been short of ram in 3 years. I have compiled kernels, 
GCC, and many other things on this laptop, runing make with multiple 
threads; I sometimes got stuck by lack of cpu, never by lack of ram.


     I understand that you want to go further and increase the size of 
your /tmp by compressing it. It seems pretty complicated and probably 
not worth the burden.
