Hello, 1) Increasing the swap-partitions size will be hard to impossible, I'm afraid 2) You probably don't need to, anyway. Did you watch how much of your swap space ever becomes utilized? You would have to push your machine really hard in order to make it run out of swap. Unless you need the swap space for crashdumps, 512MB swap should be *more* than sufficient. FreeBSD has excellent memory managment, and nowadays you don't need as much swap as you did some years ago. But you can specify different locations for crashdumps (if I am not mistaken).
