The question for XP admins is if that task is really worthwhile; I mean, if having a computer off-line for several hours with heavy disk activity and wear, as compared to been perhaps a small percent slower in normal use.
luch worst than that. The swap file can be badly fragmented and this is very slowing the computer, and it can't be defragmented!! so one have to unset the file, restart, delete it manually , defragment and reset it...
(I did this one month ago... Pity I need an XP computer)
Wow. I guess I haven't seen that often because I like to specify a fixed size swap file soon after installing windows. The fragmentation occurs if you leave it at "automatic". - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
