Not true:
The document is pretty outdated,
older raid patches crashes easily, with my program,
free_page not on list ... and so on ...
But with the latest patches +2.2.6 ,
swapping on a soft-RAID1 swaparea gives me the same
behavoiur as swapping on a regular disk.
(no more free_page errors)
Therefore it's a kernel design issue.
