    Safe to turn off Swap space with 256GB of RAM with 50-70GB of RAM used at all times?

    Hello, I am thinking of turning off swap space since my server has 256GB or RAM with 50-70GB of RAM used at all times. It currently has 4GB of swap space for usage. Also swap space has 0,8-2GB used space on average. Anyone has any idea what would be the best option for performance? Thank you
