Yeh, your right... I'd be comfortable at 250M since /var and /tmp

I would like
on my systems i dont like more then 120-130MB of swap per physical hd,
more then that(unless the drive is _really_ fast) could drag the system
down real bad. i usually make it a rule for me to include a 128MB swap
partition per hd no matter how much/little ram i have. the box im on now
is 512MB, wi
Hi,
this might be a bit off-topic, but I've read in several manuals that a swap
over 128 MB doesn't make much sense, but I never understood why. Can anyone
enlight me on that?
I'm using 128 MB of RAM and have a 128 MB swap, which is fine, but pretty

verly much -- it does increase system complexity
and management. Unless this is required by space constraints, I'd
suggest not doing it. But if you need the option, it's there.

Why split /usr amd /usr/local if they're just partitions on the same drive?
I could see doing that if they were on seperate disks to gain a little bump
in access speed.

Hi all! I've got a quick question about the arrangement of different
