I don't do things that way. Why would you want to use swap when ram is orders of magnitudes faster and cheap? I have several Centos server from a p-3 1ghz all the way to a p-d 2.8 ghz. I have put centos 4.4 on a p-3 550 with 256 megs of ram. The instant i could i added another 256 megs of ram because swap was chuggin the box. I don't change processors every upgrade. hell my current machine is 5+ years old and has lived through windows 2k and xp and will get vista. it has done centos 3 and now centos 4. i don't advocate nor practice the windows way of hardware management.
