I threw that amount of swap at one of them in desperation one time  
and it stuck.  I'm sure if I wanted to I could dink with it and  
figure out where the threshold is but this was a lot easier.  And  
despite what top(1) says the machine performs noticeably faster.

It's horribly wasteful but it works and since I've got the space I'll  
use it.
