I am not quite sure about that: at 36GB RAM 99.9% of the [l][u|i]n[u|i]x out there will not touch the swap, unless they really have to do, like in specialized circumstances as such. If you have a 3TB smp machine, for example, what do you use for swap? Having said that, a neat idea I have been playing with includes a raid 10 on 4 intel SSDs, 160GB each, just for swap. The machine has 128GB RAM. -- George Marselis : systems administrator Building #2, 4th Floor, Room 4327 Computational Bioscience Research Center : KAUST Mobile +966-56-321-7713 : Work +966-2-808-2944 : skype project2501a -- You have received this mail because you are subscribed to the mira_talk mailing list.
