Bazzite high idle RAM usage, can someone explain?
Hi, I was joking a lot and said: "Unused RAM is wasted RAM"
But now I'm actually curious, why is the idle RAM usage of bazzite so "high" I mean in comparison to other Distros it's 2x or 3x as high.
My Bazzite GNOME Desktop Edition, boots with 4.2GB RAM usage. And as you can see, the PC is just 30sec on. For comparison: Recently I was on Debian, I kind of copied the GNOME Bazzite layout with all the Extensions and the RAM usage right after boot is ~1,4GB, the only App that I've selected for Autostart is
And I never see vram being used, at first I thought that there is just stuff in zram swap, but everytime I check, it's just a couple mib or nothing.
I also heard about an application or service, that is called "Preload" idk, if it's even installed on Bazzite, but if yes, is it because some RAM is cached, to preload you most used apps?
