Disk performance and SWAP file location

["Walter L. Preuninger II" <walterp@texramp.net>]

I wouild like to optimize my partitioning scheme

Example A

	space		a		b		swap(center of drive)	c		d

Example B

	a		b		swap		c		d

Example C

	a		b		c		d		swap(center of drive)

In this example, i assume a to be /usr and c to be /var

Which example gives the best performance.

Does 2.2 do elevator seeking

So the root question is, should sawp be between the most active file
systems, or should swap be in the center of the drive

Thanks,

Walter
