How is this getting upvoted, zram is a ram compression technique of a few % and has nothing to do with preloading strategies
Edit: mb, apparently its behaviour now also includes general purpose cache. Back in the day, I remembered that it would only help for low ram devices to make better usage of existing ram.
TL:DR it will use some of the ram and dedicate it to games to make them run better and start faster using the existing quick startup function.
It’s called ZRAM.

ZRAM is used as swap space, it’s not just the compression that makes it stand out.
