A lot of swap on servers is bad. A little bit is fine though and can actually be helpful in certain scenarios. I've seen servers with 256GB of RAM configured to have <1GB of swap, so in case of a runaway process the swap fills up very quickly and doesn't delay the OOM killer, but still it helps the Linux memory manager to run more optimally. |
