Swap space - max size

   Is there any point in adding more than 2 Gb of swap space on an x86 if
you have 2 Gb of ram? From what I've read, x86 can address 4 Gb of memory,
so it would seem that more than 4 Gigs of combined memory and swap space
would be wasted. Am I right?



    Thanks,

    - Jamie
