  8. Re:swap file vs. paging file in Linux on Comprehensive Guide to the Windows Paging File · · Score: 1

    I've always gone on the idea that if you are useing more than 128M of swap space than buy more ram. You're beating your hard drive to death. I've sense uped that to about 512Ms though because to many people would argue with me about having a swap file that's twice the amount of RAM on the box. well we have a box with 16G of ram you want a 32G swap file????????? If you were working on 32G of data in and out of swap you'd be hateing life, even on a fast scsi raid.

  9. Re:swap file vs. paging file on Comprehensive Guide to the Windows Paging File · · Score: 2, Informative

    same with Linux. You used to prefer using a swap partition to a file due to the file system code slowing down your swap operations if it were on a file but about 18+ months ago I remember seeing a patch go into the kernel that made this not true any more.

    I wrote a perl script to do the same thing. basicly just

    #!/bin/perl

    while (1) {
    $var = "$var-some amount of random data-";
    }

    It would run until it sucked up all the memory and then die. I eventually modded it so I could run it with an argument like 500M and it would just grow to that size and die.

  14. Re:Useful combination = Acrobat + OO on Adobe Reader 7.0 Coming to Linux · · Score: 2, Funny

    I agree, MSOffice saves OpenOffice files so badly I dont even think its an option. I tried MSOffice for a few weeks, I couldnt beleive the OpenOffice files it wasn't producing, formatting was completly out to lunch, often the file wasnt even existing in OpenOffice.

    I prefer Closed source if avalible and it works, but it doesnt work ...

    I use IE, Windows and Outlook daily, love em. they work, very well. MSOffice doesnt.

    It's not like a speeding ticket, it's more like getting a ticket for doing the speed limit. You go to court they throw it out. You can still drive the speed limit without fear of repremand.

    I was having sex with a drunk girl once, yea like I'd have a chance any other way, and yes once, but she ended up passing out right in the middle of it all. I was wondering what should I do? Should I keep going? It was my only real chance. I had this little devil on one shoulder saying, "Keep going, keep going." but then on the other side there was this little angle that said "Stick it in her butt."
