"2) Inactive memory (which is memory that has been recently used but is no
longer) is supposed to be seamlessly reclaimed automatically by the OS when
needed for new programs. In practice, I?ve found that this isn?t the case, and
my system slows to a crawl and starts paging out to disk when free memory drops
to zero, even as half of the available RAM (which is a lot) is marked as
inactive. ..."

Well, this is not a case of a "BSD is dying" troll (you can safely ignore
those).

yes it is, just search a bit to know what "inactive" memory in FreeBSD is.
