As to the size, Linux does nothing automatically (unless you tell it to). You can define the vdisk size to whatever you want. I typically use 32MB for some machines more for others, depending upon the machine.

Is there a 1 to 1 correspondence in the size of the VM linux machine (user directory entry) and the amount of swap space either mdisk or v-disk? Linux usually doubles the size of the defined memory. So, for example, a Linux guest is defined with 100 meg, the swap size will usually be around 200meg Do I need to define a v-disk size of 200meg? Also, what is the latest and greatest way of setting up a v-disk? I've found different examples. Some are a few years and the technique are applicable to the technology back then. Procedures have progressed etc. I didn't want to spend time on using an old technique when a newer more stream lined method would work.
