> Add a (small) swap. It doesn't have to be a partition: nowadays most filesystems support swap file. Just create an empty file and mark it as swap. My experiences with swap on Linux have been similarly bad. If even brief memory pressure forces the kernel to move things to swap, the only way to revert that in any reasonable timeframe is to unmount the swap partition or to restart the machine. Meanwhile using Windows with a swap file of twice the size of physical RAM runs smooth as butter. I have a 200GB swap file right now and no problems. |
