We had problems when we ran out of SWAP space and the system locked up. At that time we had a v-disk of 512 MB only. We added two more SWAP spaces with a lower priority of 2 GB each. The linux guest machine has 4 GB of real memory defined. I have noticed that going over 512 GB of SWAP on the v-disk is a very rare occurence. am I better off with two additional SWAP spaces or should I break them up into smaller ones?
I would break them up smaller, but it basically boils down to a tradeoff of configuration complexity versus economy of allocation. If you have way more real storage than sysadmin time, leave two big ones; if you are short on storage, slice up the swap.
