  • Should have opted for the 32gb ram 🤭😛
    What about your ssd space? Do you still have enough for swapping? For me YouTube itself consumes 1,4 GB of RAM, and other apps approx 800 MB. Have you cleaned your cache recently? Normally system apps like safari or even edge shouldn't have caused this (I did a test, and opened 100 tabs with trackthis.link, and Mac OS did it well. I'd have done like this: Cleaning cache, freeing some disk space (when none left... Source: 10 months ago

  • My Firefox is using so much RAM.
    If you want to see what happens when it gets busy, monitory memory use including swap use while you to go trackthis.link and load a bunch of tabs. That site will load 20 at a time in Firefox and they are pretty memory intensive sites too. Firefox and Chrome have awareness of total free ram, and they have techniques for minimising ram. These techniques are based around discarding tabs you haven't visited for a... Source: almost 2 years ago

  • Personal observations on systemd-oomd vs earlyoom on Fedora and Ubuntu
    I started up some small apps: a couple of terminals, libreoffice, Software store, and then Firefox and Chromium. I enabled pop-up menus, and used https://trackthis.link/ this to load 100 sites into each of the browsers. This causes sufficient memory pressure to exhaust ram + swap on both systems.

    3. Doesn’t matter for everyone who actually cares, as it’s trivial to cripple the ad tracking. https://trackthis.link works quite well and is an insanely low-tech approach that works on basically all platforms. Not to mention tools like uBlock Origin. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago
