Virtual memory is a valuable concept in computer architecture that allows you to run large, sophisticated programs on a computer even if it has a relatively small amount of RAM.

Xiaomi is starting to implement a "Virtual Memory" feature on MIUI source code. It may arrive in time for MIUI 13 debut.

With the base iPad Air 5 not including virtual memory swap but still having Stage Manager have caused some to question the need for the M1 to run this feature.

Apple is adding virtual memory swap to iPadOS 16, allowing apps on the recent iPad Pro and iPad Air models to use free and available storage as extra memory for demanding workloads.

The biggest feature of iPadOS 16 will only run on the M1 iPads — and it is using advanced memory management to do it.
