an old rule of thumb says that your swap space is twice as much of your ram.
this is *not* a rule anymore. your swap space is inversely proportional to
your ram. the more ram you have the lesser of swap space it will consume and
vice versa. ram/swap ratio is really depends what kind of application do you
intend to run with. so, you have to know for every application how much
memory it will consume so that you will know how much ram and swap space you
will allocate it.
fooler.
