Re: Adding RAM
Yes. Real memory gets swapped. Excessive swapping activity (think
page I/O per sec.) should be avoided and that is the reason for adding
more real memory. I would give swap 4 gigs if you have the hdd space
to spare. Cheap stuff.

Also, at the moment I have 1 GB of swap with my 1 GB of RAM. Should I adjust
