In other news - I created a partition on my harddrive and just told my virtual memory to live there. It can do whatever it wants in there, and I don't worry about it getting in the way of everything else on my other partitions

That works especially well when sharing with a dual-boot's *nix swap.
Not that memory or disk space cost enough to get a second glance these days. The only time I find myself worrying is on has-been systems, or farms, which I'm not around anymore.
BTW Shakran, 3x physical RAM is an awfully large amount for swap. There really isn't a valid rule of thumb unless total physical and the system's purpose are taken into account, which makes it less a rule of thumb than a table of thumbs.
