i configured 4.7GB swap on 512MB computer and i see in logs

warning: total configured swap (1249880 pages) exceeds maximum recommended amount (986496 pages).
warning: increase kern.maxswzone or reduce amount of swap.


fine, but after increasing maxswzone to 60000000 from less than 40 
millions of default, no difference in message

tried even increasing it more - no effect, same messages

change is in /boot/loader.conf and it sets properly as sysctl 
kern.maxswzone confirms.

what's wrong
