Oh, I just read back the post and realized that I posted saying that I never hit the limit with 0 swappiness. Indeed, however, 0 is just a test. I recommend you don't go that far, I currently run on 10. Tune as you see fit, some people do 50, some 80.

Though it shouldn't break, zero means holding out as much as possible and I have no idea if that's a good thing, you might end up swapping heavily just to load a big game or app, which would be detrimental to experience as well.

Just putting it out there.
