Hi all,
I have two older servers that started with 512 MB of RAM.
I want to install two GIGs of RAM.

Whan I upgrade to two GB RAM, do I have to increase the swap slice?

This is contrary to the "usual" advice which is to split swap across disks

the disks were on separate controllers, and if the machine did swap regularly
then two swap partitions would be beneficial. E

Hello,

I think it would be an excellent feature to be able,
in addition to using a swap partition, also be able to

Hi,
after reading
http://hedera.linuxnews.pl/_news/2002/09/03/_long/1445.html I was
wondering if this would be possible with FreeBSD?
