Compressed writeback cache in front of the disk swapfile keeps cold anon pages in RAM instead of the SSD, freeing page cache for the ~78GB mmap'd LLM weights. zstd's ratio keeps ~5G more anon bytes in the capped pool than lz4 at negligible cost (CPU peaks ~30% on this host); pool capped at 10% so it never competes with the weight cache.
