Might be late to the party, but I just discovered you can do this. Super simple and easy to do.

After having a read of the linked page, I backed up and just used this option:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Profile-sync-daemon

Installed, created config, and enabled service:

systemctl --user enable psd.service systemctl --user enable psd-resync.service

I definitely notice an increase in speed and less SSD usage should hopefully increase lifespan.

I’m sure there would be options for alternative distros, anything using Systemd should be able to use the daemon.

    No I believe you have to download more RAM actually. But what would I know I’m just a proctologist.

      No, this is wrong. I saw this documentary, ‘Johmny Neumonic’ I think, and it specifically showed a computer scientist increasing his storage and RAM through software, but you need a special device to plug in to do it. I’m sure Best Buy sells it.

        Yes! They also showed the amount of RAM was just a guideline and it’s possible to “overfill” your RAM!

          No, you are also wrong and need to rewatch that documentary. Sheer will and determination will allow you to double your RAM.

            Also befriending a drugged up DARPA dolphin will be a massive boon too.

      Is it normal for a proctologist to have both his hands on my shoulders when checking my prostate?
