I am still wondering why the swappiness is still set at 60 for Linux Lite 5x. I was expecting that it has been reduced to at least 10 for old HDD and SSD for this upgrade. When I was stil in LL 4.8 with an old HDD, I already reduced my swappiness from 60 to 10. Now in my new SSD, I have reduced mine to 5 for faster performance. High swappiness is IMHO, only fit for servers, and low swappiness will immunize the computer to memory shortages caused by temporary big files.
Code:
cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
