Настройка swap на Linux VPS

Swap для VPS с малым объёмом RAM.

📋 Требования

• Linux VPS with root/sudo
• Free disk space (e.g. 2 GB for a 2 GB swap file)

Check RAM and current swap

Bash
free -h
swapon --show

Create a 2 GB swap file

Bash
sudo fallocate -l 2G /swapfile
sudo chmod 600 /swapfile
sudo mkswap /swapfile
sudo swapon /swapfile

Enable on boot

Bash
echo '/swapfile none swap sw 0 0' | sudo tee -a /etc/fstab

Tune swappiness (optional)

10–30 is often better for VPS:

Bash
echo 'vm.swappiness=20' | sudo tee /etc/sysctl.d/99-swappiness.conf
sudo sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.d/99-swappiness.conf

Стабильная работа! 🚀
