does More Ram app work on radxa cm3/rk3566 soc with debian?

Cool ideas?

I am buying a CM3 with only 2GB of ram and would like to know if this app is compatible with this board. I can't buy a board with more ram because of price limit.

More RAM is one of the few apps that does not actually download anything. Furthermore, it does not install any packages. It simply changes a few kernel settings to enable zram, along with other tweaks to maximize its effectiveness.

So as long as your kernel has a zram module, the More RAM app should work fine. You can have another Radxa user try running sudo modprobe zram to find out.

If this answered your question, feel free to close the issue @qNnOtTk.
