Add two swap tuneables to sysctl: vm.swap_async_max: 4 vm.swap_cluster_max: 16 Recommended values are a cluster size of 8 or 16 pages. async_max is about right for 1-4 swap devices. Reduce to 2 if swap is eating too much bandwidth, or even 1 if swap is both eating too much bandwidth and sitting on a slow network (10BaseT). The defaults work well across a broad range of configurations and should normally be left alone. END
