      Using several small zram devices as swap is no better than using one large.
      Set either zramSwap.numDevices = 1 or explicitly set zramSwap.swapDevices.

      Previously multiple zram devices were used to enable multithreaded
      compression. Linux supports multithreaded compression for 1 device
      since 3.15. See https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/28/404 for details.
