  1. Since the time I started with Linux the recommendation has always been to setup a separate partition, and being rather old school I've always complied. I've only got 12gb of RAM, though I wanted a more rounded number, so I setup a 32gb swap partition. I think the most I ever saw it get used was 6gb, but that was fairly heavy use with about 20 browser windows, each with about 10 tabs apiece and a media player in the background with some music going, and obviously about 20 terminal windows across 5 desktops, plus an emulator. Usual day to day usage is maybe 5 browser windows at 20 to 30 tabs total and 8 terminals, and even then it's usually not more than 2gb of swap used. If that constitutes a profile in which I've severely over-allocated my swap space, I'd still do it just the same. I've got the disk space and I've never felt it get sluggish. Even on the old computer, when I had 256mb of RAM and a 1gb swap partition, Slackware still felt snappy.
