Given lots of leaky apps, when the severe offenders were in need of restarting anyway, I've been known to delete and re-add swap devices. Given enough space to bring everything back in, it works fine AFAIK. But simply for the case of SMF shutdown, if that doesn't work without such games, there's some other problem that needs to be fixed IMO.
