I have the following kernels installed:
- linux-zen (Zen)
- linux-rt (RealTime)
- linux-hardened (Security Hardened)
- linux-lts (Long Term Support)
- linux-tr-lts (Realtime LTS)
When I boot up, I try the different kernels from time to time just to see if anything interesting happens. It never does.
My question: How do I actually physically notice the difference between these kernels? If I use RT, does Firefox spawn quicker (in my testing, no, not really)?
What are some use cases when I can really see the difference in these kernels?
There’s a systemd OOM service that can be setup. I use CachyOS and they have it as a checkbox to turn it on or off.
Going to look into this, thanks!
I’ve had this exact same gripe and can thankfully report that running EarlyOOM has fixed this for me.
