#swap

Today we’re in Blanchardstown Library, Dublin 15, for another Swap&Play event. Here families can bring toys they no longer use and children find pre-loved ones to bring home free, all while having a great time!

In the picture: just before and right after opening the doors!

For upcoming events, check thetoylibrary.ie/p/events.

What is the point of a /swap.img file on an always-running desktop with large memory? #swap

tuning(7) begins:

"The swap partition should typically be approximately 2x the size of main memory for systems with less than 4GB of RAM, or approximately equal to the size of main memory if you have more. "

I can't believe that 64 GB swap should be a norm for a system with 64 GB RAM.

Do you hate #passwords as much as I do?
Can't we have public key #authentication everywhere? Like in my #email client?

Yes we can! Without #authkeys!

Because #TLS supports not just #server side #certificates , but also the client can be verified.

My #Dovecot now logs me in without a password :D I just need to possess a valid (unlocked) private key. The secret never crosses the network.

Next step: make sure the decrypted key is never written to #swap .

I wish using #VRAM as #swap in #Linux was easy and safe. It would be even more useful now that the #AI bubble has caused a surge in the price of #RAM. Many desktop and laptop computers have a discrete #GPU whose dedicated memory is very much underused.

Hrnkoťata - swap kuchyňského vybavení

Autonomní centrum 254, středa 4. března v 18:00 SEČ

Je tu druhé Hrabošení! Tentokrát se zaměříme na kuchyni a budeme měnit všechno, co v ní je občas potřeba. Například:
-hrníčky a sklenice
-talíře a misky
-příbory a obracečky a takové ty věci co patří do druhého šuplíku
-hrnce, malé hrnce, pánvičky a střední hrnce
-mikséry a varné konvice
-cedníky, struhadla, mísy
-a podobné věcičky.

Jako minule platí, že co se nerozebere, pošleme na místa, kde to někdo ocení. S něčím budeme oslovovat FnB kolektivy, něco předáme do domácností v projektu Housing First a dalším sociálním projektům.

Pokud něco doneseš, rády*i se toho ujmeme. Pokud si něco budeš brát, můžeš a nemusíš přispět do kasičky. Všechno, co v ní na konci najdeme, předáme na účet R-mostů, který jsou bezva (víc na www.r-mosty.cz).

Hrabošení zdar!

So, I like the perspective of optimizing swappiness on #Fedora, because I started to run out of memory as demands have grown. 8 GB simply doesn't cut it.

But according to biskitpagla, it's not recommended to take up more #ZRAM than my actual #RAM, because it would override all attempts at switching to #swap file in case ZRAM is exhausted.[1]

#ArchWiki has some config to make better use of ZRAM along with swappiness[2], so I'll take it.

3 года прожил с 32GB оперы без #swap и не испытывал проблем. Всё изменилось когда решил собрать #firefox сборка выжрала всю оперативную память и система жёстко затормозила (хоть и не зависла) и получил ошибку.

А всему виной #rust который жрёт как не в себя. Сегодня собирал #librewolf и пришлось ограничиться 8 потоками и всё таки подключил #swap (но забыл изменить vm.swappiness = 0 поэтому на скрине #swap = 0).

export MAKEFLAGS="-j8"
export MOZ_PARALLEL_BUILD=8

По монитору максимальный жор оперы который зафиксировал 21GB (6 из которых занято было системой и браузером). И да, оно собралось :blob_excited:

@amin STICKER STASH HAS ARRIVED!!! 🥰❤️ #swap

A collection of stickers. The first one is the logo for writers month, which has colourful squares vertically along the left and a fountain pen nib on the centre and right.  The other logo looks like a purple, green and blue ball of yarn!!

Un señor en #reddit, que tiene en alta estima su inteligencia, pensó que ha conseguido jaquear la actual crisis de la #RAM. Usar una unidad SSD como #swap. Su plan, cariño, hace aguas...

Cuanto enterado hay suelto... Por cierto, voy a descargar más RAM para mi PC. No digo el sitio para que no me robéis la idea, putos.

I have some computations that I am joblibbing. The RAM consumption is very predictable as a function of the processes. However, the swap is also creeping up and I have no idea what can be causing this. Is there a rule-of-thumb for predicting swap use in parallel operations ?
