Good morning all,

Each operating system seems to have different documentation regarding what a decent swap size is for systems with large amounts of RAM. My system only has 8GB of RAM. Some people have gone with the general idea that 2X the amount of RAM is sufficient but for systems with large amounts of memory 1X the amount of RAM is fine. I was also told that anything over 2GB of SWAP space will cause performance issues on the system and that it is not recommended.

Either from the FreeBSD docs, or based on personal experiences, what is the recommended swap space for a 8GB system? Your opinions are greatly appreciated

Kind Regards,
Jonathan
