There is a small swap partition (1.3GB), but System Monitor has always shown "0 bytes" usage. There's 4GB of memory, and it's never gone over 1GB usage that I've seen - so I figured the swap partition was never being utilized. Maybe it is after all?

This particular machine was built with a specific purpose in mind, and the SSD was a requirement. But since I've re-purposed it for the Supercomputer week, I may go ahead and throw a regular hard drive on it till the 9th...just to be safe.
