Does installing zRam have any advantages on a system without SWAP?

Does installing zRam have any advantages on a system without SWAP?

Running Ubutu 12.10 here, on an 128Gb SSD and a 4Gb ram system. Ever since I installed the OS I realised I dont need the swap partition, as I never use the hibernate function and rarely run out of RAM. However, would installing zRam bring any real improvement when RAM is full, even if there is no swap partition?
