I agree with Richard on the swap file size. Over the years I have watched my own swap file usage and it has been quite low, most of the time it's less than 32 mb used at any given time. Typically, I have a swap file of 128mb/256mb, and that has servered my needs quite well. I suggest you monitor your swap file usage using are program like top, or using cat to display /proc/meminfo from time to time determine exactly how much swap you are using. There's nothing like creating 1.5GB of swap just for it to sit unused.
