Hello,
Has anyone played with the swappiness settings of the 2.6 kernel? Itlooks like the default is set at 60. I was thinking on this new machineI put together with 4 gigs of ram that I might bump this number up alittle, maybe like 80.
Any thoughts?

I've never experimented, but it seems Andrew Morton sets it at 100:http://kerneltrap.org/node/3000
