( Btw, & fwiw, I wouldn't worry too much about using a swap partition on
an ssd: but it depends on things like what is the total size of the ssd,
ram, and any other hard-drives in the machine; and on what kind of software
is going to be running - are you likely to be swapping a lot, can you put
more ram into the machine, etc. And some folks on some machines don't use
any swap, of any kind, _at all_. &c&c&c.
