  • I have a question about swap.

    My current rig has 64 gb, and I opted to not create a swap partition. My logic being I have more than enough.

    The question is does swap ever get used for non-overflow reasons? I would have expected 64 GB to be more than enough to keep most applications in memory. (including whatever the kernel wants to cache)


  • Solving the underlying issue, I’d agree.

    But you don’t go to a doctor and say “I’m broke, fix me”.

    There’s a basic expectation that the patient/tenant will describe why its not broken. What is expected, and what’s it doing instead. (sometimes that needs to be reiterated back to the patient/tenant in order to move, and that’s where the landlord failed here.)
