Hi,
Please disregard my previous message - it has some typos (high temps here :) ).

Would you please take a look at 'top' output (Ctl-M - sorted by memory use)
and share with us the system lines plus following 10 lines. Note that 
the display may fluctuate, so wait for a while to understand what is really 
happening and then capture the output for us.

As a general rule, your min swap size should be:
RAM size plus 20%
This is due to "save to swap" requirement for hibernation.
JB
