Short stroking ... thanks for the info/links.
I thought I had read once that the inner part of the disk is faster,
due to the smaller circumference for the head to traverse.
So do I have it backwards, when I put swap in the first partition?
Or is it still the case, that of the portion of the disk used
(which may less than the entirety if short-stroking), that the
innermost track of those actually in use will be fastest?
(albeit a faster disk would make more difference, as has been noted.)
