Dont expect any useable system performance if you swap regularly.
Not entirely correct. Performance with continous swapping will
be fine as long as the swap bandwidth is lower than available disk
bandwidth.
This is a narrow line to walk though, memory bandwidth being
much higher than disk bandwith so it don't take much more
swapping before performance drops like a rock.
