This default was arrived at some time ago with input from the kernel team regarding the fact that the kernel behaves best when it has some swap space but shouldn't necessarily have a lot. If we think 1GB is a wrong value, we should change it from 22.04.1 forward... but don't have a good way to automatically change the allocation for existing installs. Fortunately, our use of swap files mean it's possible for the end user to non-destructively increase their swap space, but I wouldn't be comfortable with us doing this automatically as part of a release upgrade or in an SRU! -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
