    You can set the swappiness so that RAM gets filled before SWAP. You need it if your RAM isn’t large enough for the stuff you want to do. You also need it for Hibernation to be the same or larger size like your RAM. Without it you can only suspend. You MUST use encrypted SWAP if you want to be really secure since otherwise your encryption key might be written onto your Nvme.
