Re: Disk performance and SWAP file location

hi ya walter good question ... - anybody measued any of the partition schemes ?? am assuming "a" is the outer tracks "d" is the inner tracks... -- swap should be NOT an issue... if you sustain constant 32Mb or 64Mb or 128Mb of swap space usage ADD that much more memory !!!

I wouild like to optimize my partitioning scheme Example A space a b swap(center of drive) c d Example B a b swapc d Example C a b c
