Running 4.3-RELEASE ...

Is it possible to assign swap priorities to swap devices?

I am currently swapping to 2 IDE drives, but I have an
older IDE drive spare, which is much slower than either of
the existing two swap devices.

My concern is that if I add the third slower unit I might
actually see a drop in swap performance, if it is given
equal priority to the existing swap devices.

Is this a valid concern?

If yes, can I set swap priorities somehow?
