that's pretty expensive if you're booting from flash and not using a remote
fileserver.  8GB flash is expensive, not to mention deadly slow.

also, why should i have to have swap?  i really don't want it.  it
introduces new failure modes and could introduce wide latency
variations.  linux called, it wants it's choppy, laggy ui back.
