The amount used is a function of how much memory you have with a max of 128MB per partition. (Meaning that a swap partition larger the 128MB is wasted space.) By activating the swap on more then one drive, you get a performance increase. (Actually any disk operation split accross more then one drive is typically faster.) ======= Kirk Wood Cpt.Kirk@1tree.net
