What a waste.              I'd like to lol a little bit. ;-) The raspi is designed as a cheap learning       plattform for everyone. Your lession learned was that swap can be useful. The       next lesson would be that it's better to avoid swap for performance but this       one you knew already. People new to IT would learn that the hardware resources       need to match the task(s). Fullfilled its task the raspi had.              Regards              Kai              --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.4.7        * Origin: Monobox (2:240/77)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 105/81 120/340 123/131 129/305 226/30 227/114       SEEN-BY: 227/702 229/101 424 426 452 550 616 664 700 1016 1017 240/77       SEEN-BY: 240/5138 5411 5824 5832 5853 249/206 317 400 280/464 282/1038       SEEN-BY: 292/854 301/1 310/31 317/3 320/219 322/757 342/200 633/280       SEEN-BY: 2432/390 2452/250 2454/119       PATH: 240/77 5832 229/426           |
