I have a swap of 313 on one of my machines (I just used what was left after
making the other partitions - I thought "that's close enough".) Anyway, no
problems on that computer. Of course it (the swap file) never gets used....
So I don't think it's a problem if yours is 400mb, fairly sure that ain't
your problem (though I can't tell you what is...)
