No, not really.  Physical memory and swap are only loosely coupled these
days; swap is more an insurance policy.  Or are you using the swap area
on your disk as the dump device for crahsdumps?  That is not really 
recommended any more, but if you do, you might want to check if the
dump will still fit.

Also, if you have limited your ZFS ARC size, you might want to consider
increasing it if you can spare the memory.
