the actual rule as far as i know is: allocate twice as much swap as physical memory minimum swap size should be 16mb maximum size should be 128mb so if you have 4mb use 16mb, if 32 mb use 64mb, if 256mb then 128mb. hope this helps. saqib ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ann Parsons" <akp@xxxxxxxxx> To: <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Thursday, July 12, 2001 1:28 PM Subject: Re: A few questions > Hi all, > > My computer guru says that when allocating swap, to allocate twice as > much swap as you have memory.
