I have not tried this under Linux yet, but did try it under FreeBSD a
few years ago admittedly using a hub and a 10MB network and was not too
impressed which is what you would expect with the above setup. Is anyone
using swapping on a 100Mb network using switches instead of hubs, if so,
what do you think? Personally I think if you are using old computers you
may as well use the hard drive in it and swap locally. I remember a
comment a while back on a newsgroup which said "even Sun worked out
using local swap was the way to go" I suppose a good combination would
be to use local swap when a hard drive is available and network swap
otherwise. I am running netscape as a local app due to the "Flash plug
in problem" and the enormous amount of CPU used when it renders a page.
I am also interested in what other apps users are running locally. Any
comments??
