Hmm, I thought (referring to an earlier part) that the "twice as big as
physical ram" rule of thumb only went up to x size, say about 400-500 megs or
so? I thought it was wasteful (short of doing video editing or something
rather intensive like that) to say, have a gig of mem and make a 2 gig swap
out of HD space.
Or did I dream that?
I've got 512m of ram now - I just don't think I need 1 gig of swap space.
Anyways, somebody enlighten us. :-)
