SSDs age when repeatedly written to, so whilst static swap usage is kinda ok, active swapping out is bad and worth avoiding. Swapping-in is not really an issue as it doesn't age SSDs.

  1. Could you add $swap.out (and $swap.in) to the text widget value in RAM, Module?
  2. Better yet, could you add an option to select what the RAM module graphs, (or add a new Swap module) to show swap.out (or swap.in, or swap.used)?

vm_stat provides these figures. Maybe there is a better way of notifying when lots of active swapping (out) occurs?

Thanks for considering.

I think the swapins and swapouts could be added to the text parser in RAM widget.
