Like I said, why would I want to turn off my swap file?   Are you tring 
to tell me that 8M of 70ns ram is better/faster than 8M of 70ns ram PLUS
16M of 8ms Swap?  I guess you like those out of memory/memory allocation
errors?  If you are not trying to multi-task, then you may be fine, 
sometimes.    

Disable your virtual memory management system in a "UNIX" system, OS/2, 
Winxx or the MAC OS.  Unless you have a ton of ram, IMHO you have just done 
something pretty stupid.
