IIRC the official openSUSE recommended sizing of swap is 2x RAM-size, but no larger than 2GB, unless you want Hibernation, in which case it is 2GB or 1x RAM-size, whichever is the larger
Care to provide a link for that? While it may have been the case with *nix systems years ago, I don't think it applies any more.
I'm curious. Hibernation is suspend to disk, yes? (I don't use it myself) And specifically, hibernation is suspend to 'swap' space, which really means suspend to paging space under linux. And there are all kinds of guidelines about how much space is sensible or reasonable to allocate as swap space. But that depends on workload. But what happens if swap space is all in use when hibernation is requested? Does the system refuse to hibernate? Or trash running process images? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
