However, why not move both the the NVME? You will speed up swapping considerably by doing so.
It probably would. I'm worried about shortening the life of the NVME drive with all those short writes. Do SSDs fail by going read-only, or do they just vanish and take your data with them? -- LEO: Now is not a good time to photocopy your butt and staple it to your boss' face, oh no.
