Thanks in advance.
AFAIK, ED as a chroot use exactly same swap as maemo, so if maemo use swap on microSD, You're good to go.

@mscion
We're not talking about putting ED image on microSD, instead of MyDocs. That's almost useless performance-wise (i can provide little boost, if Your swap is on eMMC, due to less I,/O conflicts with ED request). We're talkng about using dedicated ED partition, with "real" ED filesystem, instead of image. Using that is HUGE improvement. Amazing, how strong placebo effect can be

@Kabouik

Yea, getting info, how to do it correct way is PITA, due to lack of info in ED wiki. I was able to find parts of instruction in few different threads, and cook usable solution. Ho ever, I don't remember everything now, so it's best to wait for qole response.
