Indeed. None of the above are typically used (as in most of the time) on desktop systems where swap is the most problematic. As for compession, the only engine I know of that wants more than 128 MB of RAM is lrzip and other rzip derivatives.

Common offenders that bog down the system in swap for me as a developer are the web browser, JVM (Android) and electron based apps (messengers, two).

I would also like a source that substantiate the claim that using swap in map-reduce workloads actually helps. Or perhaps in database workloads. Or on any machine with relatively fixed workload.
