8 On systems that I setup assuming I wouldn’t need swap, I set swappiness low
9 and add a swap file (on ssd if possible) so the bigger builds can at least
10 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
12 options, sometimes by a wide margin.

14 I don’t bother with /var/tmp/portage on tmpfs any more as it seemed to be
15 more trouble than it was worth.
