Expert advice please

Hello,

I have one 2 Gig disk here that I relabeled with disklabel in order to
provide more SWAP space to my system. I created 2 partitions, 1 of 400Mb for
Swap, and the rest for other use.

I plan to:

1) Add swap (the 400Mb partition)
2) Add the remaining 1.6 Gig to my usr_domain (with addvol domain partition)
which also contains /var. I need to increase the /var/tmp capacity as some
jobs here do HUGE file sorts.

My motives to do so are that actually, SWAP and /usr reside on the same disk
(system) and that putting more swap and more /usr on a second disk will not
dramatically degrade performance.

Am I right ?
Any better solution ?

                                        Thanks for your advice
