SWAP is always bad and should only be a reserve so normally you should have as much memory as needed for the application (per-connections-buffersxmac_connetions, key_buffer_size, buffer_pool) and 20-40% reserve, additional i wuld recommend 1-2 GB SWAP to help the OS in stress-situations but never, independent for which service, you should see SWAp as additional memory because if it is heavily used/needed the performance will suck
