Extend memory or not?

Short note on the Swap file.....

1) It is small
2) It's purpose is to "swap" out from memory all but the core code for apps to reduce the memory footprint. The "Suspended" state. When needed, the data for the app suspended will be brought back into memory.
3) disabling or removing the Swap file is detrimental to memory management.
4) The Swap file has no relation to the Pagefile.
5) Both should be left alone for the system to function as efficiently as possible.

"Because the system has to keep loading data", right but the problem with SSD is with writing and when you have a pagefile, there's a lot of writing... Moreover, because there is no pagefile, the memory holds the data it already has and just load more of it when needed. That was the reason that eventually the computer did crash.

Think of the computer storage and RAM as you sitting in a classroom. The instructor is the program/CPU, your brain is RAM/Swap File, and your notes are the storage. As you process what the instructor is stating, you are making notes but also retaining those points that you may reference later without notes or needing the written notes to help you answer questions that the instructor will ask during class.

How a Page/Swap file works. You are allowed to use your notes for taking the test and also remember enough to associthose notes with the test that you are taking without having to always reference your notes.

This is what you want to do. You took written notes during class, etc. You studied for the test but cannot use them during the taking of the test, you have to remember everything that you can from what you stored in your brain; problem is that you lost some of that information from having another class information take place of the stuff you need for that test that you are trying to take. Hopefully you remember enough from longterm brain storage vs. short term to be able to get the right information on the right test.
