I have a #Linux machine with 32GB RAM and barely use 8GB of it. I run #Firefox with hundreds of tabs, open #Haskell, #Rust, and #PureScript projects all at the same time. Have #Telegram and #Discord apps running, and the memory usage still hovers around 8GB.Seems like I should be using Docker and Kubernetes just to feel like I'm using my machine to its potential
@haskman I have 64 GiB and use some of it for /tmp and /var/tmp. Speeds things up a bit and avoids some writes to the SSD. Needless to say my systems don't have swap -- and never were in need.
Might have bought 128 MiB, but 64 was the economic sweet spot.
@frank Great idea! I might do this
