Hello!

Through experience I've used the thumbrule:

swap=(2.5 or 3) * total memory

On systems that does need swapping - typically on servers/workstations
with 64 Mb ram.

A heavilly loaded 400 server has know got 384 Mb (had 192 Mb).
I wonder if it need to have more swap than the 341 Mb it has now?

Swap allocation method is: /sbin/swapdefault.disabled
