I've just had a peek and apparently it's using swap memory right now!

Using swap is not a problem. Swapping is the problem.
It is unusual though to see half a gig in swap when less than half of
the RAM is is use, is it not? For example mine has been on all day
and is still showing zero swap (I have 4GB RAM). Does it not mean
that at some point something has been using a lot?

I'd say it's fairly obvious that 'something' is running away with
itself. It's just a case of pinning down what. Based on the way the
system is performing at the moment my bet is on Firefox, no doubt thanks
to flash. However even just now with chromium running 3 tabs but
disconnected from the net, thunderbird and rhythmbox running it was
still pausing in the middle of tracks.
