Reinstall the os and forgot to install zram and I paid for it
Is it just me or building with
cmake --build --parallelCrashes with out of memory every time? Maybe it depends on the project but idk
Edit: No swop?
Swap is overrated (/s)
Like with a slowly rolling unbraked car: Don’t take photos if you can prevent the crash
sneers in 48GB
I upgraded to 64GB RAM a year or so ago which I didn’t really need, but it was cheap so why not.
How things have changed.
Did the same, even if it’s “just” DDR4 i still feel like RAM nobility nowadays.
It didn’t suck enough already buying PC parts in Australia?
Now it’s starting to look like upgrades are just a thing of the past and this is going to be my forever machine.
I hope you’re wrong.
What is zram?
Swap but better it behave mostly like actual ram and fast too, not as fast as actual ram but still way faster than swap I can open 5 browser tabs one of them playing a video while compiling a software I don’t feel my system slow down at all
I always confuse ZRAM and ZSwap. From my understanding ZRAM is the better one and Zswap is kinda outmoded.
It turns into a rabbit hole every time I gotta reference it! Lol
It’s a Linux feature to compress some of your memory and then store it in a RAM disk. For systems with limited memory, it makes it go further.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zram
zram, formerly called compcache, is a Linux kernel module for creating a compressed block device in RAM, i.e. a RAM disk with on-the-fly disk compression. The block device created with zram can then be used for swap or as a general-purpose RAM disk. The two most common uses for zram are for the storage of temporary files (/tmp) and as a swap device.
I have a mini PC that has been barreling through NVMe disks but Alpine Linux’ “usb” install mode just wasn’t great either. So I use a “sys” (traditional install) on an NVMe disk but have directories like
/var/log,/tmp, etc. on Zstandard compressed zram disks. It’s been pretty fantastic honestly.
Look at Mr. Fancy pants over here with 11 cores.
I’m just jealous
12, because they’re zero-indexed.
Probably six cores with hypethreading or the AMD equivalent.
AMD’s version is called Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT). But just about everyone, even most motherboard firmware that I have seen, calls it hyperthreading still.
I wish, it’s a Ryzen 9 5900hx with only 8cores what you seeing is threads which I have 16 of them
- It starts with 0.
…… I don’t get it.
I’m guessing memory almost full and no swap space
