The github page says, and I quote
“Uses ZRAM(4GB) with the ZSTD compression algorithm by default with the option to switch back to a 1GB swap file and set a custom size for it if desired.”
How do I do this?
I need to get the swap file, and make it 16GB, if not, I can’t play a game I like, RUST.
We removed this functionality, I will update the readme to reflect that.
well then, how would I resolve my issue?
We don’t support swap files under any circumstance. The minimum requirements for rust are 8 GB of RAM. I would need more info to understand why it is you need more swap in the first place, there should be no reason for that.
Both us and Fedora use ZRAM by default.
Hm, I see.
Thank you for your assistance! Just, somebody suggested that it would help the game, And I believe he might be right, As the game runs at a, I kid you not, wonderful 0.1 FPS ingame, and the whole system barely works anymore, and I often have to force shut down
I wonder what’s causing it, then…
This seems odd, unless the prohibition is only on swap FILES, but you do support swap partitions?
If not, how does hibernation work? It’s my understanding that Linux writes the hibernation image to swap (file or partition) unlike Windows that creates a regular file (Hiberfil.sys)
Ok, so I looked into it more and it seems that using hibernation in a dual-boot situation (which is what I was hoping to do) is fraught with risk. Basically, a hibernated OS has a bunch of filesystem state cached, and if another OS writes to a filesystem that is shared, the next time the hibernated OS restarts it could nuke that filesystem.
So, that unfortunate, but good to know.
