   Yes, this is a great idea.  But don't forget that, if you have /tmp

   file, swapping to a dedicated partition is going to be a bit faster normally.

How I do this on NetBSD_1.1?  If I have two smaller partitions (50 MB
each) dedicated to swap, and I mount /tmp on swap, can I put more than
50 MB of files in /tmp?
