I won't bore you with the details but in fact our application *does* require 
this much swap space, but not for the typical reasons. It's a side effect of 
how our application works and we thought we could make use of an image file for 
the extra swap rather than repartitioning, but I've read too many warnings 
against going this route so I've decided to stick with increasing the size of 
the swap partition.
