part of some irc discussions on
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/KDEEarlyOOM
raised my attention to related item,
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/SwapOnZRAM
As it stands currently with earlyoom, it's default thresholds are 4% ram and
10% swap before it acts. That's fine and dandy.
Upon reading the SwapOnZRAM feature proposal, I see it is advocating
allocating 50% of ram for swap. I'd like folks to consider and evaluate how
this impacts earlyoom. It effectively makes the earlyoom memory threshold
double (right?). If so, at least think about lowering 4 to (2 or 3), since
that will make earlyoom's behavior closer to before swaponzram was
introduced.
Thoughts?
