  "I advocate for right-sizing your hardware to predicable workloads and not using swap at all." You do realize in the current semiconductor-short code-bloat-heavy economy we're in right now that your advocation would be prohibitively expensive for many people, yes? At least, the gaming community would basically need to be grabbing $5K systems just because of garbage AI companies and crappy inefficient 'AI' upscaling algorithms with garbage engines that insist on doing intensive rendering optimization and upscaling on low-res models when simply rendering the regular model is faster (I'm looking square at you, UE5.) You know, that kind of thing. Plus the open world streaming, yea that's about already equal to a massive swapfile just for world data. I think your advocation is very short on vision given current realities.
