> Windows remains mostly fully responsive even when memory is being pushed to the limits and swapping gigabytes per second In my experience this is only on later versions of the NT Kernel and only on NVME (mostly the latter I think). | ||

Yeah I think SSD / NVME makes all the difference here - I certainly remember XP / Vista / Win 7 boxes that became unusable and more-or-less unrecoverable (just like Linux) once a swap storm starts. | ||

NT4 exhibits the same behavior under extreme load. | ||
