10.4: Move swap files to another drive

What is the point with moving the swap file to another drive?
Speed?
Tiger is so quick, why bother...

10.4: Move swap files to another drive
Authored by: TigerKR on Feb 10, '06 06:46:21PM

If you are on a standard 1 hd, 1 partition, apple setup, and you're completely satisfied with Tiger's speed, then this hint is not for you. This hint is not meant to convince you that moving your swap file is necessary - its not.

This hint is for those of us who are trying to squeeze every last ounce of performance out of our computers without having to void the warranty, or spend more money on faster hardware. Or, for those of us who have already spend the money on faster hardware - this will help us to make sure to get more bang for our buck by squeezing every last ounce of performance out of our upgrades.

Again, this hint is not meant to convince you that moving your swap file is necessary - its not. If you are on a standard 1 hd, 1 partition, apple setup, and you're completely satisfied with Tiger's speed, then this hint is not for you.
