As a general rule, and one that works for me, is to make the swap space twice the amount of memory, but that is only for memory of less than a GB. IF you have more than a GB I wouldn't make it any bigger than 256MB, BUT I would put it on a second drive, or the one that doesn't have root or /sbin or /bin on it.

Does it make sense to set a swap space size equal to the memory size, even if we've got 4 Gb of RAM ?
