On systems that I setup assuming I wouldn’t need swap, I set swappiness low |

and add a swap file (on ssd if possible) so the bigger builds can at least |

finish, albeit more slowly. Generally swap never gets touched. I also use |
11 |
zswap with zstd or lz4, which perform better than the old lzo deflate/zlib |

options, sometimes by a wide margin. |

I don’t bother with /var/tmp/portage on tmpfs any more as it seemed to be |

more trouble than it was worth. |
