mike/theo, first off big thanks for working on this! pardon my newbie question but does this ^^^ above paragraph mean i might need to create a new swap like this? assume a mem of 8 GB. (i will be re-partitioning within a few months to get a bigger /usr/local, /usr, and /var) new swap = 8GB (for real swap) + 8GB + 64MB (for hibernate purpose) i would conservatively (worst case scenario) opt for the option above. please advise if its right. the current swap on the openbsd machine is the default swap chosen by the installer. windows (they do have one of the best hibernate around) creates a separate pagefile (swap) and a hibernate file. any thoughts of having a /var/hibernate or something along those lines? thanks
