Swap or I/O Improvement in Fedora 8?

Dear all,
I've tried Fedora 8 to run some applications that require large amount of
memory. Since my machine only contains 2GB RAM, I resort to a very large
swap partition (32GB). I found that the performance has been much improved
as compared with Fedora 7. Are there any changes on the swapping algorithm,
or any improvement in the I/O of Fedora 8 over its predecessors, that
accounts for this result? (If it's the latter case, I suppose common
read/write triggered by the program code will be benefited as well, but I
have not tried this.)
Best Regards,
LaBird (Benny).
