swap size should be mainly based on how the box is used, not on how many ram
you have. On a desktop, you don't need much swap... except if you don't have
many memory, just the opposite as the rule 2*memsize. It's more like
swapsize = 300MB - swapsize.

diskdrake doesn't take the ramsize into account and will never do!
