Just felt I should post a wrap up on my swap increase journey.
All last week I ran with 4GB real memory and a total of 8GB swap.
I was using all the real memory and pretty much 4GB of swap with poor
performance.
What was going on? With Fedora 28 I was running fairly well with 4GB,
or was I? Plus I upgraded from a 2 core x120e to a 4 core x140e and I
thought things would be better.
So this morning I pulled a 4GB card out of another x140e I have that is
currently off.
Free is reporting:
$ free
total used free shared buff/cache
available
Mem: 7416056 3609248 860448 354948 2946360 3158088
Swap: 3419132 0 3419132
and performance is just fine. So I was suffering with only 4GB of real
memory. Perhaps F30 needs more than F28 or 4 core is just having more
things going and needs more memory.
Anyway, going to have to pop for the $20 for a 4GB card to put into the
system that is sitting with no memory....
Thanks for the help on adding a swap file. I have recorded that in my
instructions file for any future need.
