Thanks for the feedback. It's been a while, but after some more testing, it wasn't all that good in the end. The reason is that when it does eventually hit the memory ceiling and has to swap, the machine locks up for a longer period as suddenly there's a lot of data needing swapping. But I feel that there is a lot of room for improvement from the default values.
Also I have a new laptop now, so further testing is not possible. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/977319 Title: Swappiness not optimal for desktops To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/977319/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
