SwapSpace - dynamic swap manager for Linux
Closed due to inactivityPublic

Description

Name: swapspace
Homepage: https://github.com/Tookmund/Swapspace
Reason to include: swap is important to avoid OOM. But using same place on the memory for swap can be brutal to SSDs. Having a swap that moves, grows and shrinks according to need would reduce the impact of swap to SSD.

DataDrake moved this task from Backlog to Accepted For Inclusion on the Package Requests board.
DataDrake added a subscriber: DataDrake.

This has sat in accepted for inclusion for over 30 days. Clearly, there is a lack of demand for the inclusion of this software, nobody has stepped up to provide a completed patch, maintain it, and properly integrate it. Closing as a result. Feel free to reopen but only when someone offers a patch via our proper patch submission methods and volunteers to be maintainer.
