Changed with Bullesye as the default. Rarely, if ever,will a system with
a significant amount of memory hit swap so 2x memory is probably overkill
Hibernation on a laptop is the only thing that might be affected, I think,
and even then,m that's generally to a file rather than generic swap.
Hope this helps. All best, as ever,
