You need only slightly more than the RAM (in Gibibytes, base 2). It is a waste of drive space to have swap = 2 * RAM nowadays. > This system is sooo light we probably only really need 512MB for swap... > for all circumstances (except heavy duty users with lots of RAM and lots > of things going on) Yes, I think 512 MB RAM is enough in most situations, and we could add that to the recommendation (and allow for one more line in the xterm window). > let me know your thoughts on this... anyone else feel free to chime in > on the swap issue (or anything else) > > > -- > Regards > > -Israel > ToriOS Team > -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~torios-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~torios-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
