I do it as my swap reaches (configurable) threshold of swap size. So I just swap when needed, start swap action with nice 19 and it lags abit, but it is fully okay/respondable (OK, you should not try to open multiple browser windows at that time, swapping swap space takes a few minutes ...).
Seems I never responded to this one... You seem to manually swap it? Or have you written a script to automatically swap when threshold is reached? That way it wouldn't

The way I set this up, you never have to bother to swap manually, all will be done at night when I am sleeping. Also you (Atleast I do) never reach the threshold in 1 day so your phone is responsive, even after longer uptime

Said short: Set it up once, never bother anymore, it just works. That's why I prefer ereswap over FlopSwap.. Besides I dont have 3 swap partitions. However the way FlopSwap goes, is cleaner than Ereswap's way...
