the 128MB limit was in the days of the early 2.0 kernels.. i've seen servers
with 512mb swap now.. (note this is for servers, u might as well use that
swap to hold some more files,
if you're just using as a desktop or a personal machine). I have 256mb ram,
256 mb swap, but I get around 40,000 hits/month on el website.
