I have 16GBs here and it uses swap more than I like. I set swapiness to like 10, 5 or some really low number and it still runs low and has to use it. It's usually during updates too. If LOo and a web browser like Seamonkey or Firefox updates at the same time, it gets ugly, quick. I'm wanting to upgrade to 32GBs now. I suspect before long, that won't be enough either. Then comes a new mobo, new ram, new CPU etc etc. Oh crap, new install, bad wiki. o_O Even if I upgrade to 32GBs, I'd still have swap. It may only be a few GBs but I'll still have some. Dale :-) :-)
