I guess I was giving the author the benefit of the doubt... saying "I understand why there's no swap, but why can't it just write to disk when memory gets low?"

I guess I was giving the author the benefit of the doubt... saying "I understand why there's no swap, but why can't it just write to disk when memory gets low?" is nonsensical.
- scarface74 7y agoThere is a difference between the app writing disk before it purged a web page and letting the OS page memory. Safari could theoretically be more intelligent about it. Or it could only swap pages that contain form fields where the user has entered data as a last resort.
