Hey there,


So I'm putting together a K-12 LTSP server test, and I'm creating the
filesystem. It's a 1U server, 1 GHz CPU with 1 GB of RAM. As I recall,
isn't the rule of thumb for swap space to allocate twice the amount of
RAM? I've only got a 9 GB drive on this test server, and 2 GB just for
swap seems excessive. Any advice is appreciated.

Ultimately, if we are able to deploy this, I'd like to get a 2 CPU server.
Will 1 GB of RAM be enough for say 30-40 LTSP clients?
