1 | Hi, |
2 | |
3 | Installing gentoo amd64 on a Supermicro PDSMi+. |
4 | |
5 | It is using 4G ram and Intel Xeon x3220 with 4 cores. |
6 | |
7 | Not sure how much of swap that should be allocated. |
8 | |
9 | If following the old rule, 8G should be allocated for swap. I feel that |
10 | is too much. Does 2.6 kernel really need so much of swap with 4G of ram? |
11 | |
12 | Was thinking of just using a 1G swap file for safety. Please share some |
13 | thoughts on the this swap size issue. |
