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? simon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
