If they were on different disks, that's certainly true. I'm not sure if it makes much difference on the same disk, though. With two disk I use one swap on each so the system can stripe them. This one is a test system; I'm running two versions of FreeBSD on it. They both use the same swap so I don't have to allocate swap for both. <mike -- Mike Meyer <mwm@mired.org> http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
