You can create a swapfile. dd if=/dev/zero of=/fs_with_lots_of_room/swap bs=1m count=Size_in_MB and plug the filename into the swapfile variable in rc.conf. If you want to enable it without rebooting: vnconfig -e vn0b fs_with_lots_of_room/swap swap -- I've always wanted to be a dilettante, but I've never quite been ready to make the commitment.
