Wow someone else who plays planetary annihilation. To bad the community for the game died and the game play wasn't that deep. But it was a good effort.
Julian Walker
Maybe if you didn't play a shitty, unoptimized game on a shit "OS" you wouldn't have a problem with only 8GB.

I frequently spike up to around 12, but mostly that's because I never close anything even if its getting ridiculous memory leaks. I could definitely make do with 8, but I dont need that kind of stress in my life

tfw you use a 07 tower with 2gib ddr2 ram and run on a riced out linux os within ramdisk with a seperate cache drive and still can compete in fps games in steam
luckily im just another user and i shall never know the shame.
Isaac Stewart
Can you post that wallpaper and which DE you're using?

That game was such a let down.

My new PC has 4gb of ram
I feel like I could use some upgrade but since when I builded it the price for a 4gb stick went from 24 eur to 40

htop reports what's being used. doesn't count the cache as used memory.
>pic related
as you can see, free -h and htop report virtually same amount of ram usage.

>Disk caching makes the system much faster and more responsive! There are no downsides, except for confusing newbies. It does not take memory away from applications in any way, ever!
>If your applications want more memory, they just take back a chunk that the disk cache borrowed. Disk cache can always be given back to applications immediately! You are not low on ram!
>This is just a differing understanding of terms. Both you and Linux agree that memory taken by applications is "used", while memory that isn't used for anything is "free". But how do you count memory that is currently used for something, but still available for applications? You might consider that memory "free" or at least "available". Linux instead counts it as both "used" and "available", but not "free":
cache = free (AVAILABLE) ram. so just count cache as free ram as well.
Leo Barnes
Not the guy who asked but
Thanks - lovely desktop I will try to emulate it later
Luke Perry
yeah it was at release. titans brought much needed improvements to the game and the mod legion brings it very close to supreme commander but it's still no supreme commander. the biggest gripe i have against it is also what i like about it. planets. i like the idea of planets and somewhat space combat but i miss the flatness of regular maps. it be nice if they kept the worlds "flat" and made it when you zoomed out you "enter" space.

That's fucking terrible. I'm using about 700MB with Firefox open. I bet you're using Windows 10.

>windows even swaps with 32gb of ram because of "intelligence"
I really hope you have vm.swapiness set to 1 before making that claim.
Jordan Perez
This fampai.
Some applications will make use of swap or need it even before RAM runs out.
I ran into that problem on my OrangePi trying to run Einstein@Home on it. Without any swap available running any more than two binaries would cause them to crash even though there was still half the RAM free. Adding a swap partition fixed the issue, they use the swap even though there is ample RAM available.
All the tweaks I tried to fix it without adding swap wouldn't work. Some applications will just make use of it and some applications need it.

>Planetary Abortion
>being a standard for RAM usage
I'd like to remind you that this game is famous for having the user UI run in a separate process, which can crash and leave the main application GUI-less.

You only need 2 GiB of RAM. Some applications may demand you more, then you can just download more or stream it if you have a good internet.

Jace Reyes
why would anything other than a game need so much ram anyway? I get it if it's scientific computation but for office, video, ect... what the fuck?
I only need 1G of the ram I have at most times unless something is going apeshit and needs to be killed.
Also "old hardware" is a bad excuse for bad programmers as you should make sure it works first on hardware at least 5-10 years back before you ship as that's what most have.
