No need to. This is about how kernel governs memory usage of running apps.

       echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_timestamps
       echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_no_metrics_save
end script
After applying that and having now 6 days of uptime, I must say my N900 is... well, still bearable. So there is definitely some sort of improvement in my case.

Since that post is so early in this thread, would you like to rethink that position and maybe edit the post?

It seems to be the experience of many people that the default swappiness of 100 on the n900 is far from optimum.

After reading the optimize and swapolube threads for weeks, it seemed to me the one change worth making to improve responsiveness. I tried 30 and that seems to be working well for some weeks.

This thread is the first hit for a power search on swappiness.
