I’ve heard a lot of people say your swap should be 2x RAM… but do I really need 32GB of swap?

    Unused (or very rarely used) memory can also be swapped out to make more memory available for the disk cache (in the hope that having more disk cache available will save more disk accesses than the (hopefully one-time) swap-out operation).
