I have 2 x 2 GB swap partitions, one on my dedicated Linux hdd, and the other sharing hdd with Win2K Pro. I also have 1 GB ram at the moment, which will be going up and that is why I have my swap this way. Besides, it is like insurance: better to have it than not.

 

Besides, I run 3D CGI apps, and those are memory intensive, particularly when rendering.
