My Debian Sid mini PC and Arch laptop are at 6.11.7.

The Ubuntu laptop remains at 5.15.0-122.

Remember I had added a 4Gb swapfile awhile back? Well Chromium and a make job
ate up the swap too, and I ended up resetting the mini PC... which made it boot
to Windows.  I had to go to the BIOS and rearrange the boot sequence. Wotta
pain.

So now I keep an eye on Conky's memory meters.  Also added a script to run as
sudo to clean up memory:

    sync && echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches && swapoff -a && swapon -a

Not sure why I have this issue only on the Debian machine.
