How to disable swap in ubuntu permanently

Swapping or swapping space is a physical memory page placed at the top of a disk partition or a special disk file that is used to expand a system’s RAM as the physical memory fills up.

Inactive memory pages are often dumped into the swap area when no RAM is available, using this method of expanding RAM resources. However, swap space is much lower in transfer speeds and access time compared to RAM, due to the spinning speed of standard hard disks.

Reserving a small partition for swapping will significantly increase access time and speed transfer compared to conventional HDD on newer machines with fast SSD hard drives, but the speed is still lower than RAM memory.

Some say that it is appropriate to set the swap space to twice the amount of computer RAM. However, swap space should be set to 2 or 4 GB on systems with more than 4 GB of RAM.

If your server has sufficient RAM memory or does not need the use of swap space or your device output is significantly reduced by swapping, you can consider disabling the swap field.
