Would a small SSD used for swap improve performance on a 64bit rig that is limited to 4 gb of ram?
Asked by
Harold Hein
The rig I have for Ubuntu maxes out at 4 GB RAM. IF performance on Win7 is any indication, 4 GB really isn't enough for a 64 bit system. If this is also true for Ubuntu, can a small SSD be used to improve performance? I recall that, on WIn 7 64bit, there is a way to use a usb pendrive for additional RAM, albeit somewhat slower. Can Ubuntu do this using an SSD? If not, Would it be worth using an SSD for swap or any other way?
Thanks
