Changing Swappiness

[Moltke]

Hi [member=7067]JanetBiggar[/member]

To change swappiness, in a terminal type the following command:

Code:

sudo sysctl vm.swappiness=10

To verify changes run

Code:

cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness

However, you'll have to run this command reboot after reboot. To make it permanent, type in a terminal:

Code:

sudo nano /etc/sysctl.conf

scroll to the bottom of that text file and add

Code:

vm.swappiness=10

Repeat the process to verify changes and that should be it.

Hope this helps!
