> nothing swaps - i have running Fedora servers on VMware with 1 GB RAM (and > they don't have swap at all) for a decade now and not touched 32bit systems > in that time wether on servers nor on my personal machines Please do not forget about desktops (Fedora Workstation). Fresh install Fedora Workstation x86_64 consume 1.2Gb RAM. If we want web surfing on Intel compute stick with 2GB RAM the swapping occurs here 100%. It would be good before disabling i686 kernel building at first decrease memory consumption for x86_64 at least until 500MB. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
