So is it reasonable to expect that if I had enough memory, Linux would not use 
the swap at all and the "swap used" column would show zero? It wasn't clear to 
me whether that number meant, "I'm low on memory" or "I'm greedily reserving a 
bunch of swap memory just in case I run out of RAM in some time in the distant 
future". I didn't want to upgrade RAM unless it is actually being used for 
something :)

I just wish the following would work:

   gzip /dev/mem > /dev/mem

:D
