Claudius,

I have about 6 GiB of swap, and 0 is used. With other apps running,

$ free -m
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:          4053       2002       2050          0        340        832

Swap:         5938          0       5938

I'm running Gnome, so there should not be any concern about this.

Note that I often hear the fan going mad, e.g. when simply launching
the system monitor. Every time I launch the system monitor, it takes
sth. like 5 seconds before displaying graphs. And, during these
seconds, everything is frozen: playing music stops, for example, and
then continues 5 seconds later (5 seconds later in the sound too).

If all else fails, try the obvious.
