I'm a little confused about using swap with btrfs on my home and root partition. I would like to be able to use swap. I know that btrfs can not use swap, but is that only if I create a btrfs drive with volumes? What if I install btrfs on partitions instead? Or would doing so pretty much negate the benefit of using btrfs in the first place? Also, what would be the recommended sizes for btrfs partitions? I have a 120g ssd.

Thanks for the help,

Don
