Subject: Too much swap?????
Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org
Precedence: bulk


Is there such a thing as 'too much swap space'?  I am running FreeBSD 2.1 on 8 megs of ram (yeah, I know, it sucks).  I was reading somewhere (don't know where), that if you have too much swap space, it works against the system.

I was wondering if this is true?
