this is why I run without swap on my z50. 48MB is adequate for everything
I've done so far (tho I haven't been running X on mine... just  use it as a
portable serial terminal, text editor, and C compiler). you just have to set
an option somewhere (i think in the rc.conf), telling it to run without
swap, or else it will complain at boot time.
