Well, there are two partitions there, the first is commented out (thus
not used) and the second seems to be enabled. Check if that UUID
corresponds to the swap partition ("ls -la /dev/disk/by-uuid"). If so,
it has to be enabled at booting. If not, you can still manually enable
by issuing "swapon -a" and then review the output for any error or if
success, run "free -m" again.

Having swap can help but in your case, with as little as 216 MB of RAM
I don't know if that would be enough. Better is that you try and see
how it goes.
