I'm setting up a dedicated freeBSD box for htdig, and I was wondering what memory 
setup I 
should use, ie how much swap space to use. At now, htdig runs on 5000 pages, and the 
db 
size is ~35Mb. In the next few months, the number of page migth grow to 15000 - 20000 
pages. 
The Server is a PII 400 w/ 128Mb Ram and 9Gb UltraSCSI HD.
Apache Http server is also running on the same box. I have no ideas how many people 
will 
access htdig and / or will browse the pages on the server. For one year or so, 
accesses may 
be pretty low ( no more than 1 access at a time ), but after that, I don't know.

Is it better to give a lot of swap space ( let's say 512Mb ) Should I give more ? or 
less ?

Should I provide a dedicated partition for htdig files ( conf and db files ) because 
there is only 
one disk. No matter the partitions if it crashes.... Moreover, I run a daily backup on 
the 
server.
