I wanted to try this amazing new file system, which is now one of the 
installation options for Focal. Unfortunately, I did not set up enough swap 
space for hibernation, which I would like. So I'm wondering if anyone could 
suggest a method of increasing swap space on my system, which appears below.
I have plenty of USB ports, so I would even be open to using a flash drive for 
this purpose. I note that it seems anxious to grab my external storage device, 
so perhaps it would resume from something more appropriate.

If you want to use your rpool, and you've got the space to spare, here's one way to go about it. This is for a 4GB swap partition.

# create a zfs filesystem, with compression (optional)
zfs create -V 4G -b 4096 \
  -o compression=lz4 -o logbias=throughput -o sync=always \
  -o primarycache=metadata -o secondarycache=none \
  rpool/swap

# make it into swap fs
mkswap -f /dev/zvol/rpool/swap

# turn it on
swapon /dev/zvol/rpool/swap
