LM 17.3 xfce constant lagging

I'm using LM 17.3x LIVE. Have constant and sometimes, severe lagging issues. Problems started when I "upgraded" to 18.3x. I tried 5 other distros all with the same issues. Went back to 17.3 and , alas, the problem followed. Found this: sudo gedit /etc/sysctl. conf vm. swappiness = 15, but all it did was set in the terminal(never executed). Hopping someone here can direct me on how to alleviate all the lagging.

String Constant C

I wonder string constant exists permanently or temporary. For example, printf("hello, world"); the function printf access to it is through a pointer. Does it mean storage is allocated for the string constant to exist permanently in memory? :confused: (4 Replies)

SYSCTL(8)																 SYSCTL(8)

NAME
sysctl - configure kernel parameters at runtime SYNOPSIS
sysctl [-n] [-e] variable ... sysctl [-n] [-e] [-q] -w variable=value ... sysctl [-n] [-e] [-q] -p <filename> sysctl [-n] [-e] -a sysctl [-n] [-e] -A DESCRIPTION
sysctl is used to modify kernel parameters at runtime. The parameters available are those listed under /proc/sys/. Procfs is required for sysctl(8) support in Linux. You can use sysctl(8) to both read and write sysctl data. PARAMETERS
variable The name of a key to read from. An example is kernel.ostype. The '/' separator is also accepted in place of a '.'. variable=value To set a key, use the form variable=value, where variable is the key and value is the value to set it to. If the value contains quotes or characters which are parsed by the shell, you may need to enclose the value in double quotes. This requires the -w param- eter to use. -n Use this option to disable printing of the key name when printing values. -e Use this option to ignore errors about unknown keys. -N Use this option to only print the names. It may be useful with shells that have programmable completion. -q Use this option to not display the values set to stdout. -w Use this option when you want to change a sysctl setting. -p Load in sysctl settings from the file specified or /etc/sysctl.conf if none given. Specifying - as filename means reading data from standard input. -a Display all values currently available. -A Display all values currently available in table form. EXAMPLES
/sbin/sysctl -a /sbin/sysctl -n kernel.hostname /sbin/sysctl -w kernel.domainname="example.com" /sbin/sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.conf FILES
/proc/sys /etc/sysctl.conf SEE ALSO
sysctl.conf(5) BUGS
The -A parameter behaves just as -a does. AUTHOR
