Just had a look at a couple of servers - one's got 1.5Gig RAM, and one gi=

swap, the other's got one gig RAM and two of swap.

My workstation has 512MB of RAM and regularly uses up almost all of=20
the 340 MB of swap so based on that experience I would say that 512=20
MB of swap for 512MB of RAM is the *minimum*.

(I'll be repartitioning the workstation in due course).
