Right.
But, generally I think that swap is used in
a serial manner, eg the first chunk gets used up before the
next one is started, etc.

Hi,
Create a swap file system on a partition where you have excess space.
dd if=/dev/zero of=/usr/swap0 count=128 bs=1m
chmod 600 /usr/swap0
mdconfig -a -t vnode -f /usr/swap0 -u 3
swapon /dev/md3
You can check the output of swapinfo to confirm. You will have to load the
swap file
Hi, all

it mean adding another swap to disk or to slice ?

Hi,
I've heard if there are many disks on one machine
it's good (in respect of performance) for adding swap
parition on multiple drive, what does this mean
(if that's true) ?
My box has six IDE drives two on primary, two on
secondary and two connected via IDE controller.
TIA,
