Hi,
After reading the following section of the Handbook, I'm still a little
confused.

configtuning-initial.html#SWAP-DESIGN
If I have 128MB ram, and 2 drives on seperate controllers, would I create swap
partitions of 256MB on each drive?
No 256+256=512 so you would put half on each.
What if I have 1GB ram? It won't be swapping much anyway. Surely 2 swap
partitions of 2GB each won't hurt, but is that overkill?
It not a rule more of a guide line. You can safly put less on it if you
don't swap much. Dont go to low. You don't want to a situation where
100% is a posiblity. This could panic your system.
