Top's summary-box output is not formatted in the most informative way
possible.  Try the "free" command and you'll see the same output
arranged differently.  That makes it somewhat clearer that the "cached"
field doesn't refer to "cached swap"--it refers to disk data cached in
RAM.  

You have 0k total swap.
