Guys (and others) - I have been playing with memory filesystems
to place /tmp in swap space.  The examples in /etc/fstab.sd show:
  /dev/sd0b /tmp mfs rw,-s=20000  0 0

That's OK - but what if you have multiple swap partitions and
wish to spread /tmp over all of them?  Perhaps ..
  swap      /tmp mfs rw,-s=20000  0 0  ??

And what if you leave out '-s=20000'?  Depending on OS version
it seems that half memory size - or half total swap - is assigned?

Regards .. G.
