My newly installed FC2 systems is running a lot slower than
I expected. I chose the "default" partitioning scheme suggested
during installation. And fdisk now reports this as:
# fdisk -l
Disk /dev/hda: 41.1 GB, 41174138880 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 5005 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux
/dev/hda2 14 4981 39905460 83 Linux
/dev/hda3 4982 5005 192780 82 Linux swap
Isn't that around 188 Meg of swap space? My system has 128 Meg of memory,
and in the past I seem to remember allocation about four times as much
swap space as I had physical memory, with better results.
Am I nuts? Does swap space only need to be the size of physical memory?
I don't really understand the issues here. Advice?
