I have a Intel Atom N570. duel care 1.66 per core but with 2 more
"virtual cores" and *2GB* ram. When my 4GB swap gets to 14% used, my
system starts to become unusable.
Attached is my Conky config. Conky is a system monitor that is running
at the bottom of my screen which displays status info like my ram and
swap usage. So with a quick glance I can have a look at my state of my
system and know if it's about to get unusable and so to do something
about it.
btw there is a dot char at the beginning of the config file name. Don't
forget your file manager will hide this file.
