• How to Add a Swap File On Ubuntu

  Author: howtoforge • Tags: linux • Comments: 4 • Updated: Jun 22, 2018

Effectively, as the system goes on the low-memory mode, it swaps a certain section of the RAM that an idle program may be using onto the hard disk to release memory capacity for other vital programs.
