It is essentially an old rule of thumb but it should be adjusted according
to your site's requirements. It was also said that above 64M RAM swap is not
strictly necessary... and if you want to see examples of it being used,
well, fire up Star Office and watch your free memory disappear:-) And this
is only one user... I would imagine what it meant if 10 users tried to use
it in the lab at the same time from the same machine... So much for
applications being used over the Net:-)
