You can ls /private/var/vm of course…but I don’t think the actual size of the 
swap files in there goes down unless you reboot in which case they get deleted. 
I routinely have 4 or 5 of them in there. 

I thought I understood this stuff…but Activity Monitor shows 8.11 GB of VM 
currently while I only have a 67MB and a 1GB actual swap file. Where does the 
over almost 7GB of VM reside?
