Mercy beaucoup Marc!,
So, all those unused swap is normal? Because I thought the OS will write into 
it no matter there's still free RAM or not. So, the formula of swap = 2 x RAM 
isn't true for big RAM?
Just now, I tried to exhaust the RAM by opening lots of apps (kmail, 
konqueror, galeon, gimp, openoffice, etc), but strange.. the RAM seems never 
ran out.
