Hi all,
If you are not sure about how much disk space to devote to swap space,
you can be empirical about it. Install MRTG, either from the Redhat RPM
or from source (compiles cleanly) and write some scripts to monitor
memory and swap space usage. After some time, check the graphs to see
how much swap space you have effectively used.

Alternatively, you can use the sar package to check on this values.

You can monitor almost any system parameter you like this way to help
you make better hardware upgrade decissions about your system.

Cheers,
