Hi, I have 4G RAM totally. The SWAP is now 4G now. Is it ok?
Thanks 2007/5/18, Tim Aslat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

Does this mean you now have 2G or you have 2G more ram? Typically, the rule of thumb is you need at least 1Mb more swap than you have actual ram. Something to do with system core-dumps, or some such. I forget exactly what the the reason was, but it's still a good idea to have more swap than physical memory, even if it's only a slightly larger. Maybe it was hibernation or something like that. Must go back and read up on it again Cheers Tim -- Tim Aslat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Spyderweb Consulting http://www.spyderweb.com.au Mobile: +61 0401088479
