    Hello floofybread.

    I used the swap partition up to antiX 22, and from antiX 23 onwards I started using the swap file, which is an option available in the antiX installer, because I don’t need to create a partition for swap and the swap file consumes disk space from the / partition (slash or root).

    In addition to the swap partition and the swap file, antiX 23 can use the antiX Memory Manager program, which was created by @anticapitalX and @Robin.

    In video 6 of the YouTube channel called “antiX Linux em Português” (antiX Linux in Portuguese), I discuss the swap partition and the swap file.
