Tips for Minimizing Memory USe

[Moltke]

Some services you might disable are:
1. ModemManager.service (unless you use a dial-up connection).
2. If you don't print files over the network, you can disable cups.service and cups-browsed.service.
3. If you don't use snaps, you can disable that one as well as related services. snapd.service, snapd.apparmor.service.

You can disable those by launching the terminal and running:

Code:

sudo systemctl stop name.service

then

Code:

sudo systemctl disable name.service

The first command stops the service if it's running, and the second one disables it from running at boot. Also, if possible, try upgrading storage to a SSD, this will improve startup time and responsiveness for apps hugely.

Hope this helps!
