-===== Introuduction =====+===== Introduction =====
  
 Virtual memory compression is a memory management technique implemented by multiple operating systems ranging from Windows to Darwin. Depending on the implementation, it can either reduce swapping to a physical storage medium or completely replace it. In the vast majority of systems, compression and decompression are generally known to be faster than disk IO. It has also been reported to offer energy savings. Virtual memory compression is a memory management technique implemented by multiple operating systems ranging from Windows to Darwin.
