First, this would be vastly easier if you used LVM, since that makes
allocating space on the fly a universe easier.
Re LVM;
Maybe, but the last machine I had I ran LVM. I had a hard enough time
remembering which volume belonged to which group belonged to which disk

As others have said, this was true back in the days when 64MB was a lot
of memory. Now, by the time you are
I used to keep around large swap partitions (that was also before the
blissful days of LVM2) until someone on the linux-il mailing list
convinced me that the amount of overhead for the kernel to keep track
of large amount of swap will actually cause a slow down and reduction
of ram utilization.

RAM is so cheap now, that if you start using swap heavily people just
drop in a bit more !
I tend to roughly match swap and memory. At least when i first install.
