little more recent AMD, but definitely older than anything Ryzen.
This machine has 8 GB of RAM, and I don't use the browser heavily, but
I've never seen memory issues there.

Could be because of the 8Gb memory. Both of my desktops have 3+ Gb
memory, but the CPU's (both AMD) are somewhat different.
I changed the configuration file to use RAM for the cache, instead of
the disk, which resulted in nothing noticeably different between the
two. Once something on the system began to use the Swap partition again,
performance dropped as it always does when Swap is used. I then changed
the settings back to the defaults.
I'm still surprised that even when Swap usage was minimal ~5Mb, there
was still plenty of RAM available to use, which had me thinking why Swap
was being used at all.
