Re:What's the right amount of swap space for a modern Linux system?
on Monday February 18, 2019 @03:46PM (#19194280)
My 8gig ram linux system runs out of ram and sometimes crashes when I run Android Studio. It refuses to use the default swap file on the ssd hard drive.I created a 16 gig swap file and set the swappiness value to 100. It only uses a few megabytes of the swapfile sometimes and still runs out of memory when I run Android Studio and then crashes. I ordered 16 gig ddr4 ram today and will remove the current swap file when the ram arrives. Seems like the only solution. I don't have time to burn another night reading up on this.

I do not consider myself lucky to be engaged by people who do "quick Google" searches or cite Wikipedia as sources to base their arguments on.

No I have just found so many discrepancies on wiki through the years that I do not consider it a valid cite and many academics agree. Are you perhaps to lazy for more in depth research than picking the first hit on Google and forming your opinion based on that one source of information?

In academia we do not even consider the opinion of people who cite wikipedia as a basis for their argument.

Well I did more than a "quick Google" so I can understand that you are not sure.

Interesting how main stream science obsesses over Neanderthals but ignore Boskopoids. I suppose it does not fit in with the narrative being projected on humanity. Also worth mentioning Adam's calendar which was discovered in 2003 in South Africa and predates Stonehenge by 10s of thousands of years.

It has been obvious for years now that Bitcoin will not replace Mastercard due to it's technical limitations.

"looking past the faddishness of cryptocurrencies".
Bitcoin is an excellent proof of concept for blockchains but I sold mine some time ago because of the ethical issue I have with Bitcoin mining consuming so much power. Some of the newer coins are much more efficient in terms of consuming power. To refer to cryptocurrencies in general as a fad though is very naive and sounds more like central bank desperation.
