Hi. I finally upgraded my 4/330 to 32 MB memory. I was wondering if
people out there have experience in optimizing performance for such
configurations. The questions I have are:
1) How much swap space should I have. I currently have 32 MB. I recall
seeing somewhere that swap space should be atleast twice the RAM.
2) Does it matter if this swap space is not contiguous. The only place on
my disk I can create a ~30 MB file right now is in one of the /home
partitions.
3) "limit" shows stack size to be 8 MB. Should this be changed to
something else of better performace.
4) What else can I do to optimize performace.
I frequently run programs which require about 20 MB swap space. I now
hope to run more than one simultaneously. Please email the replies to me.
I will summarize if there is sufficient interest.
