ramzswap ignores Nokia swap algorithm (i.e. the one that tries to write using large blocks of consecutive pages). And there is no penalty for writing non-consecutive blocks, as there is no physical media present. There could be penalty for fragmentation, but the algorithm used in ramzswap for memory allocation/distribution is pretty effective afaik.
