To make sure that vm.swappiness is really contribute to the tendency to swap of the kernel as documented, I also did a test on Tumbleweed with vm.swappiness=60, which is the default value.

The test result is as expected, the swap kicked in late compared to vm.swappiness=180. And not only that, the system doesn't try to maintain the free space in RAM.
