No. You can look at the file /etc/fstab or use top to see if there is any swap available (or being used). What happened with me is the installer tried to make a swap partition, but the filesystem type was incorrect (apple hfs if I remember) causing it not to be used. Using mkswap to change it to a swap partition, using swapon to activate it, and updating /etc/fstab is all that it took to fix the issue. I did not even need to reboot.
