What's the downside? It worked for him.
- collint 15y agoYeah, I've had zero problems doing this for over a year. I used to get into swap hell every other day and now my life is beautiful and awesome.
- eridius 15y agoThe downside is it slows filesystem access down across the board until the caches get repopulated. So sure, go ahead and use it if you like having a slow filesystem. Caches exist for a reason. Deleting them willy-nilly tends to be a bad idea.
