Hello everyone!

Adrian's Rojak Pot ([l]http://www.rojakpot.com/[/l]) has just posted Revision 3.0 of the Swapfile Optimization Guide!

In this massive 20-page guide, you will find everything you want to know about the swapfile and how to optimize it. But the buck doesn't stop there. Not only will you find recommendations for optimizations in this guide, you will also find the reasons for choosing or rejecting the various optimization techniques. Check out this clip :-

"There have been many theories on how to optimize the swapfile. The most important ones are listed below :-

- Making the swapfile permanent
- Moving the swapfile to the outer tracks of the hard disk
- Creating a huge swapfile
- Moving the swapfile to a different partition in the same hard disk
- Moving the swapfile to a different hard disk

We will examine those methods and see what will work and what won't."

So, check it out and let me know what you think about it! :)

Great! I was looking for it the other day to give the link to someone that had a question regarding setting the swap file. The original arcticle helped answer a lot of questions that I had on the subject, and was well written and informative. I am off to check out the revised edition :) Thanks!
