Not sure why that is, but I have 32 GB of RAM and I would like my system to utilize it as much as possible, but as you can see in the screenshot, the system is only using 5.66 GB of the physical RAM, but swap is still being used in a high number. Is this normal? Should I lower the swappiness to lower than 10? Should I let it be? Thanks
Here is the screenshot

    That’s great if you treat your computer as a toy. But if you actually need it to do work then that’s terrible advice.

    Destroy a virtual machine first, not your actual computer.

      I have a whole machine that I don’t touch for stuff like this to get my actual work done on. This one is for learning and fucking shit up. Lol
