Some people actually have a swapiness value set and like to use swap for what it was intended to be used for (putting things on disk that are hardly ever accessed.)
@Maounique said: In a home server with very little memory, this seems like a very good thing to do since servers are not so busy and the memory is scarce
So are you saying in a production server you will access every bit of memory frequently? Seems absurd to think that you won't have some things that can go to swap.

Hourly cron job?
Swapping ... consider a memory upgrade.
He got 648 unused and 308 buffered, and 147 fro cache. he doesnt need to upgrade
Daily rather, however, only 2 gb for a server seems awfully low.
