Impressive.

I think we usually Cc Greg Kroah-Hartman and Andrew Morton on
lzo/lz4 patches.

Right. The number is data dependent. Not all swapped out pages can be
compressed; compressed pages that end up being >= zs_huge_class_size() are
considered incompressible and stored as it.

I'd say that on my setups around 50-60% of pages are incompressible.
