| lubot | [telegram] <Rodrigo> From my ancient times in Windows, I remember that you could plug a USB pendrive and tell Windows to use it as part of your RAM memory. Not sure if it really worked like that, but it seemed to add some working memory. | 20:21 |
| lubot | [telegram] <Rodrigo> Do we have something like that in Linux? I am short on RAM all the time and thought, could I use a SSD to overcome that limitation? | 20:21 |
| lubot | [telegram] <Rodrigo> I guess I know the answer is 'no' (otherwise people would have 1TB of RAM quite cheap, right?). But why? | 20:22 |

| lubot | [telegram] <Michal> I mean why not? is it because of the physical hardware connection between the RAM and the motherboard that makes it much faster than the SSD to the motherboard?) | 20:40 |
| lubot | [telegram] <Rodrigo> oh the old trick of the swap file!! I will take a look, maybe there is hope :) | 20:43 |
