- renewiltord 5y agoFunny. The last time I had this was in 2014 or something when I had too little RAM and the system started swapping. Linux GUIs perform poorly under memory pressure. Way worse than windows or MacOS for some reason. Been a constant experience for me from 2001 when I first started using.

Running out of memory on a Linux system is really bad even if it's a headless server otherwise under light load I think even quantifying memory pressure on Linux is relatively new https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Linux-Does-Bad- https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Linux-Do... macOS' behavior under high memory pressure is much more graceful IME
