I agree, it is not a good idea to Raid swap space, it is also faster if
you do not Raid the swap.
Given the main reason for RAID is fault tolerance, what happens if the drive
holding SWAP craps out and it's not RAID? Would that not tend to cause
problems for a running system to lose everything in SWAP? On a server I have
at home, everything is on RAID 5, except /boot, which is RAID 1.
Yes, but it has been proposed to mount swap on a raid 0, and that doesn't
have any fault tolerance, rather the contrary, and it is slower than two
swap stripes. That is my point, that swap on raid 0 is not recomended.
