Section 2.3 (page 6) of the SunOS 4.1.1 Release Manual it states:

	Before installing OpenWindows software on your system, you
	need to make sure that your swap partition is at least 20MB;
	considerably more is recommended.

My question is: How much swap space do I need? I have 64MB of memory and
two 32MB swap partitions. I am assuming that two 64MB swap partitions is
enough.  Is this two much or do I need more?
