Hi all,

I am putting more RAM in my machine and probably need to increase the swap size as a result. Is that a valid assumption - that I need to increase the size of the swap partition/slice if I put in more RAM?

No. You've got more ram so assuming a similar mix of programs you should use less swap.

I am going from 256MB to 768MB. The size of the swap partition is currently 128MB.

I wouldn't worry about it unless what you are using the machine for is changing. Nick
