Your swap isn’t on the zvol is it? https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/ZFS_on_Linux#zfs_swap You could always set swappiness to 0…

...happened on VMs where ballooning is completely disabled (balloon: 0), so Proxmox was never actively taking memory away from those VMs. vm.swappiness = 1 is already set. So I really don't get it, why my proxmox is swapping. Problem is, that swapping can lead to i/o bootleneck on my system...

vm.swappiness=1 does not disable swap entirely; it only makes the kernel less aggressive about using it. Also, even when there is still some free RAM available, pages that have not been used for a long time can still be swapped out...

...and would like to avoid to rebuilding it again because everything is already set up), I previously had an 8GB SWAP partition and had set swappiness to 0, and SWAP was then actually always empty. Hence my conclusion or intention that I don't really need SWAP (especially now that I can...

In my experience I have found disk (partition?) based swapping to be less than ideal. I don't mean in a performance perspective, more a systems administration perspective. I've generally converted all my systems that were partition/disk to file-on-disk swap method instead. Consider the...

In my exhaustive testing over the decades, both Windows and Linux does not reliably swap _out_ data back into RAM. This is one of the important details why I not only monitor for any usage of swap at all on anything I care about (and alert if enough swap is used, >10%), I also have periodic swap...

I wrote a little bit about SWAP monitoring here. If you use disk based SWAP anyways I'd recommend ZSWAP. Note that swapon is basically the "human readable" version of cat /proc/swaps and with sysctl vm.swappiness you don't have to use a pipe and can also set it directly.

...data is not in RAM I've been working with Proxmox VE clusters for over 13 years now, and I have seen nothing but upsides to setting vm.swappiness to 0, while still having some amount of swap capacity available for emergencies. Additionally, using tools like zram is yet another band-aid...

Thanks Does the parameter vm.swappiness=10 the origin of my issue ?

...configured sysctl like this: vm.dirty_bytes = 268435456 vm.dirty_background_bytes = 134217728 This didn't help either. I configured vm.swappiness to 0, 1 and 10. None of it helped. The only thing that did help is running zstd through nocache using this wrapper: root@pve:~# cat...

Ich würde wie oben erwähnt ZRAM einrichten und bei Bedarf swappiness anpassen. Du kannst deine Theorie ganz einfach testen indem du den SWAP mit swapoff -a deaktivierst. Alles weitere ist bereits verlinkt und gesagt.

...schau mal hier. Swappen muss nichts schlimmes sein. Ich nutze und empfehle zB. ZRAM. Wenn du swapping limitieren möchtest kannst du die swappiness verringern. Da dein KSM sharing sehr hoch ist und KSM normalerweise erst bei 80% greift, zeigt dass, dass du schon viel höhere Auslastung hattest...

Setze "swappiness" auf Null. https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/ZFS_on_Linux#zfs_swap - auf derselben Seite wie bereits oben verlinkt. Allerdings würde ich das nicht machen, sondern eine kleine Menge präsent lassen. Das basiert lediglich auf meiner persönlichen Wahrnehmung. Ärgerlicherweise kann...

...shows up as higher Proxmox IO delay and higher load average. Giving each LXC even 512 MB of swap prevents reclaim storms, preserves cache, and reduces latency, often lowering total IO despite some swapping. Better options: keep small swap plus low swappiness, or use zswap/zram to cut SSD writes.

...starting from 8.1(see the changelog [1] for more details) will by default allocate 10% of the available memory to the ARC. > reduce swappiness to a 0-10 (optional, mine is back to 60 and no issues since reducing arc) This is not as simple as it sounds, the effect of swappiness heavily...
