Increase Swap

[SwaroopKunduru]

Hello Every one,

Please let me know how to increase my swap memory. Currently it shows 0MB. I wanted to speedup my system by increasing swap memory.

Regards,

Swaroop Kunduru.

Do you mean your swap is not mounted or it is not beening used at all?

Post the outputs of these commands.

Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal

sudo fdisk -l
sudo blkid
cat /etc/fstab
free -m

That only means it isn't being used. That's a good thing. ;)

Swap doesn't speed anything up- if your computer ever starts using it, it'll slow down.

Swap is merely a chunk of disk space that is used to "extend" your memory when you run out. Accessing the disk is a lot slower than accessing memory.
