I recently upgraded the RAM on my desktop from 256Mb to 1Gb, but the
swap is still as was. On a rough rule of thumb, I think this means I
should also increase swap memory to 1Gb. Is there a straightforward way
to do this, or would it be as easy simply to backup /home then reinstall
and restore? Come to that, with 1Gb of RAM, do I need to bother
increasing swap? I'm using Ubuntu Hardy Heron.
