Creating a swap partition on a software RAID device isn't ideal. It is better to create a swap partition on each of the physical devices and give them the same priority (in /etc/fstab). That's only one example, you could also use a disk that isn't part of the RAID and have only one swap partition ... BTW, wouldn't you rather create a partitionable RAID from the whole disks and then partition that? If not, why not?
