Help text

By default, zsmalloc uses a copy-based object mapping method to access allocations that span two pages. However, if a particular architecture (ex, ARM) performs VM mapping faster than copying, then you should select this. This causes zsmalloc to use page table mapping rather than copying for object mapping.

You can check speed with zsmalloc benchmark: https://github.com/spartacus06/zsmapbench
