What I have seen is that when the system needs memory, it will swap out idle programs, and it will leave them swapped out until they are needed again. (This is a somewhat simplified explanation...) It will even use freed memory for thing like disk cache instead of swapping the programs back in.OK; but then there's something else I don't know, or don't understand. Does a Fedora machine do any swapping while it has memory left? I didn't think I had (or needed) any control at all over swapping, beyond choosing how much space to afford it.
