After reading chapter 7, I think I don't need more swap space. Below is the output of free when running (but hardly using) all the apps I generally run at once: total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 385032 379860 5172 0 11840 132144 -/+ buffers/cache: 235876 149156 Swap: 514072 11848 502224 This means I am using very little of my swap space and therefore I don't need more. Is this right or am I off base? TIA -Craig > That is a very general statement that is wrong in a lot of cases.
