Estel,

Can you estimate how much was the performance gained by using a dedicated swap partition for debian and installing debian image to a dedicated partition?

i assume you made both on the microSD card (class 10?) - is that right?

i currently mount the image file from the internal MyDocs and not using another swap partition for debian - chromium is not working so smooth but reasonable - if the change in performance is significant i would do it your way.

Thanks for your hard and contributing work!

[EDIT]
i just made a simple test and moved the debian image file to the SD card (i am using class 10) and mounted it from there.
just by doing so, performance is about doubled with all debian applications - libreoffice, gimp and chromium - much much better!
