I have it switched off. Linux is very well capable of managing the memory itself. If you use a VPN client, it actually work faster and more stabilized with the flush off. I have scheduled a reboot every 24 hours (which "resets" your memory as well) but only because this contributes to an improved VPN client connection with my VPN provider, as I have experienced over time.Thanks for explanation.
I have following option "Memory Management: Regularly flush caches (default: Yes)" - disabled. Should I enable it? Or it is not necessary?
Other thing: if you use a Samba USB drive connected to your router: it spikes up the "used RAM" very fast. A NAS would always be better in such case. Routers are no good file servers.
