Not true. This desktop machine has 8 GiB, and it uses swap; after some days, perhaps 2 GiB, sometimes more. It really depends on what software you use and how you use it. I typically have many desktops and several applications open on each, and some of them are memory hungry, like Firefox with hundreds of tabs, Thunerbird with many large mail accounts (dozens of gigabytes of mail), libreoffice with several spreadsheets opened... And before someone tells me to buy more RAM, my board is maxed.
Is there a linux tool to check SSD wear out?
smartctl, depending on what the disk firmware tells you. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
