The default swappiness (the system's inclination to use the swap) should be reduced

Registered by Pjotr12345

By default, the swappiness is at 60. You can check it with this terminal command:
cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness

This is far too high a value for desktop use, especially on old computers with little RAM. It slows them down enormously. So I propose a default swappiness of 10, at least for the LXDE edition, which targets old computers.

Swappiness can be reduced by editing /etc/sysctl.conf. For example by adding these lines:
#
# Reduce the inclination to use the swap
vm.swappiness=10
