ITP: swapd -- dynamic swap allocator



Hello all,

I have packaged swapd -- demon that checks free memory and if system
needs more virtual memory, this demon makes another swapfile and adds
it to the system.
There is a problem with the kernel, because by default it has
MAXSWAPFILES set to 8 which with 4 Mb swap files makes only 32 Mb of
swap, which is not enough, so you should recompile your kernel with
MAXSWAPFILES in $(kernel_src)/include/linux/swap.h set to 64 (at
least).
Please test it, you can download it from
http://www.zednet.lv/~aigarius/debs.html
(pointer page).
IANDD jet, so I'll need someone to sponsor me until I am a DD :).
