More CPUs could help with load, but memory is key!

Larger hard drives won't fix the swapping problem either.

Not really, memory is the main issue when swapping occurs.

Faster CPUs won't do much if you're low on RAM!

Wait, can a larger hard drive really help swapping?

C is the way to go. You can't just brute force your way out of a swapping issue.

C is the obvious choice. You need to increase the available memory to reduce swapping.

I'd go with C. Adding more CPUs or a bigger hard drive won't really help with swapping.

Definitely C. More memory is the way to go when there's too much swapping.

I’m a bit confused about the hard drive option. I thought that wouldn’t really impact swapping unless it was about speed?

But wouldn't adding faster CPUs also help?

Adding more CPUs seems like it could help, but I feel like it depends on the workload.

I remember a practice question where we discussed how adding faster CPUs might not really fix the swapping issue directly.

I think adding more memory could help with swapping, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the only solution.

Okay, I've got this. Swapping happens when you run out of memory, so the obvious solution is to add more memory. C is the clear choice here.

Ugh, I'm a little unsure about this one. I know swapping is bad, but I'm not totally sure which of these options would be the best fix. Maybe I'll just go with my gut and pick C.

Alright, time to put on my problem-solving hat. I'm thinking C is the way to go here - more memory should help reduce the need for swapping.

Okay, let's see. I know swapping happens when there's not enough memory, so I'd guess adding more memory would be the way to go. C seems like the best option.
