Root The best swap file size?

[RobertT22]

On the Samsung Admire, I have Admiral Beast ROM and I have a ext4 file partition set up and the linux swap file was only 122mb so I used a partition manager and increased the linux swap file to 1.2gb...

Is this a good size for a swap file on the Admire? Thanks in advance.

I think I have my answer. The 1.2GB swap file seems to make the admire more responsive and loads my videos much faster than before.

If there is a 'sweet spot' for a swap file size, please share it thanks.

What kind of SD Card do you have? Class 6? Class 10? How much space does it have?

Did You Use The Partition Tool For The PC?

I have a 8GB Team micro SD Card class 10.

And yes I use Minitool Partition Wizard 7 Free version to create a linux swap file on the card. Also to note the swapfile before was only 122mb on the card.

And since I don't have a flash card reader on my system/computer I use this tool. Very handy and not expensive at all. Can only use one flash card at time but who would use more than one anyway?
