I just noticed that this Wikipedia article has been recently updated (this topic was recently discussed in this formum):

Having once started to compile such a list myself, I'm glad someone else has already done it.

There’s such a list even somewhere in an ancient thread on this forum.

Your link, Cflat, gives a useful table of -um words, but I have some reservation about fumumi for to smoke a cigarette, pipe etc.

(Zamenhof smoked like a trooper and I can't imagine that he used this word when offering round his cigarettes.)

This look likes some invention based on some dubious theoretical consideration.

Fumi actually means to smoke (cigarettes etc). Fumaĵi means to smoke (kippers etc)

But fumi also means fum(o)i - the action of generating smoke.
