Where did you get the idea not to use swap?
Too many writes.
(dexters writes "disable local syslog, log rotation" for the same reason)
I believe the size of the writes can be relevant as well.
In any case, swapfs was not designed for flash memory
(see also Windows Vista's ReadyBoost

Stroller.
That was exactly my point. Systems based on cf card as hard drive are
usually small - one function focused devices, hence there is no need for
swap partition. To extend lifetime of cf card you have to minimize all
possible read/writes to card.
