 ==== Swap file ====
+The default RaspiOS installation will enable a swap file to support system memory. Using the **free** command you can see that a 100 Mb swap file was enabled:
+<code>
+               total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
+Mem:         3931052      274392       55828      105748     3600832     3397328
+Swap:         102396      102396           0
+</code>
+The swap file is **/var/swap** and unfortunately it is on the very slow **SD card**. Having 4 Gb of RAM it is preferable to disable the swap file at all, just using the systemd **dphys-swapfile** service:
+<code>
+systemctl stop dphys-swapfile.service
+systemctl disable dphys-swapfile.service
+</code>
