There are some recent research projects that have not been integrated 
into Linux:

http://www.usenix.org/events/hotos09/tech/full_papers/saxena/saxena_html/
http://www.usenix.org/events/osdi08/tech/full_papers/gupta/gupta_html/index.html

I suspect that a combination of difference engine, compressed caching, 
and flash swapping could really benefit some environments.
