I believe Fedora comes ootb with a lot of things to make ram management quite good. Using another distro these days, but Fedora impressed me on that front.
(edit: Try to use zram and zswap, check if your i/o scheduler is correct for your hardware, and increase your swapiness value. These should make your system behave better. For other performance improvements, use ananicy and irqbalance.)
- IshKebab 3y agoYes I have zram enabled. First thing I tried. Even if it is possible to fix this, it's still a horrible bug because you absolutely should not have to blindly tweak settings to stop a desktop computer from hard-rebooting when it runs out of RAM. I think this is a really fundamental problem on Linux though - it would require enormous changes and unprecedented cooperation between different groups for a proper fix. Much easier to say "you're holding it wrong".
- denysvitali 3y agoSounds like you need some swap (?)
