Is there a way to "turn off" swap caching or at least to tune it down a lot ? I have enough memory to ran all my apps (I rarely see any significant cache usage), but I don't have a lot of CPU power to spare and I rather not waste it on kswapd.


You could try this:

Thanks. I've setup swappiness to 20 as suggested there for laptops, and we'll see if it gives me better "feeling" for the system. I think its better already, but its probably all in my mind :-)
