How swap is getting 12GB as its size as per the below output:

Queries:
? How swap size is populating it as ?12GB?.
? If we see the swap ?s output, total swap space is (2283152k used 12779832k 
available = 14.37 GB). Theoretically we know that swap space is sum of hard 
disk allocated for swap space during partition and few portion of real memory 
i.e. RAM. If that is the scenario, in the above system we are having 8GB real 
memory. My question is how much percentage of real memory is allocated for swap 
space. Is there any command to find that? Why swap is not showing this 14.37 GB 
as its size in df ?h output rather its showing 12GB. 

Rgrds,
Ram.
