For this case you can set vm.swappiness=0 and still have a swap |
| 9 |
partition. This disables swap for normal use but still has a swap |
| 10 |
partition available for things like hibernation. Just create a .conf |
| 11 |
file in /etc/sysctl.d/ (I use "/etc/sysctl.d/local.conf") with this in it: |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
vm.swappiness=0 |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
This will apply the setting during boot. To set it for the currently |
| 16 |
running session as well without having to reboot, execute: |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
sysctl vm.swappiness=0 |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
as root. |
