# Set margin for low-memory notifier (for tab discarder)
# Configure and start swap if SWAP_ENABLE_FILE exists.
# SWAP_ENABLE_FILE may optionally contain the uncompressed swap size (in Mb).
# Otherwise it is set to 1.5 times total RAM.
#
# To start swap, create file /home/chronos/.swap_enabled and run "start swap"
# or reboot. To stop swap, remove the file and reboot.
