On the other hand Micro$oft Vista's "ReadyBoost" feature is exactly
that - putting a swap file onto a USB flash memory stick.
So, there might be some slight advantage in putting a swap file onto a
USB stick or the SD card - if it did wear out you could replace the
memory stick or SD card, and before you reached that point you may get
some speed improvement or increase in the number or size of programs
that you could run at the same time...
Does anyone have the Linux inside knowledge necessary?
Cheers, Ed
