In my experience this is only on later versions of the NT Kernel and only on NVME (mostly the latter I think).
- robinsonb5 8mo agoYeah I think SSD / NVME makes all the difference here - I certainly remember XP / Vista / Win 7 boxes that became unusable and more-or-less unrecoverable (just like Linux) once a swap storm starts.
- p_ing 8mo agoNT4 exhibits the same behavior under extreme load.
