Mojo is faster using swap memory than regular Python is on RAM?
Has performance testing been done using Mojo with an NVMe swap file?
Given the number of threads in modern processors, it seems most scale problems are RAM-constrained. NVMe is 10x slower than DDR4 RAM, but 60x cheaper. For example, a single 4TB stick of NVMe costs $166 on Amazon right now.
If you combine this expansive capacity with the speed of Mojo, then it would effectively eliminate the "doesn't fit on my laptop" problem, and remove some of the need for distributed computing frameworks like Spark/Dask/Julia-Dagger.
