Agreed - you have to have swap - otherwise your machine will just hang
when you try and run even the most trivial app.
Anyone know how to make the swap persistent ?
As well as disabling some applications
(System|Preferences|Personal|Session) and Services - I've disabled
SE-Linux - that frees up about 32Mb.

has instructions for turning on swap once your XO has booted.
I turned added a swap file using the directions above and this has
made a large difference for me. Last night I was experiencing freezes
after a short period of time, preceded by things getting quite slow.
Tonight, after enabling swap I have been able to navigate around
pretty well and even run FireFox for a bit - though the swap usage was
creeping up while using FireFox.
Definitely much more usable with the swap file.
I did do a small bit of tuning with the Gnome session, turning off the
following items:
Bluetooth Manager
GNOME Splash Screen
Network Authentication
PackageKit Update Applet
Print Queue Applet
SELinux Troubleshooter
User Sharing
