Two swaps??? Why two? I have never heard of this before. If needed, increase the size of the single swap. Please explain.I'm on LM 17 Cinnamon and tried to get 2 swaps running.
Creating them and getting them loaded at startup was fine...
But I found nowhere how to change their priority in order to interleave...
I thought I could change that is fstab, but at no avail...
Where is this thing hiding and how to configure it???
Two swap partitions on two different disks for interleaving, it doubles its R'n'W speeds. The swap partition is 2Gb for 2Gb RAM, the size is plenty, I guess... I brought down swappiness to favour RAM over swap and the HD is a 7200, fast enough for the Pentium M 1.75Ghz, I guess... No??
You are in luck. An article on Swap is going to be released in one-three weeks here on this website.
By the way, here is a fstab example. The priority is set with "pri=100". The priority values are 0 to 32767.
/dev/sda3 none swap defaults,pri=100 0 0
/dev/sdc5 none swap defaults,pri=1000 0 0

Did that and went back to swapon -s to see that it made no difference whatsoever to the priority...
Oooh!! Great!! At last the answer I was hoping for..
Thank You ever so much Dev..
Cheers!!

re: swap -- are two separate hard drives being utilized?
Slackware (as in Salix) never gave me problems with two small swaps on same hard drive (first time was an accident) -- try one of 'em as a suggestion -- I would favor salix or absolute
