How to Enable Features :-

ZRAM :-

Open Terminal

Now you need to login into root 

$ su

Create zram size
initialize /dev/zram0 with 96mb disksize with this command

$ echo 10066329 > /sys/block/zram0/disksize

Note: Disksize cannot be changed if the disk contains any
data. deactivate first before you can change its disksize.
use this formula for calculating the disksize you want
( ill use my 96mb as an example)

$ 96mb= 96×1024×1024)

Activate:

$ mkswap /dev/block/zram0
    swapon /dev/block/zram0

To check if you have swap enabled

$ free

and it should return something like this

$            total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:        506188     419736      86452          0      49404     121960
-/+ buffers/cache:     248372     257816
Swap:      1534200     100348    1433852

*It should look similar
 

Deactivate:

$ Swapoff /dev/block/zram0
