I belive it to be correct, and I agree that it isn't enough swap activity to be bottleneck. *But*, actual memory activity of sole ModRana might be even lower - remember, that how swap is used, is determined by swap-related settings.

I mean, that after initial reswap'ping before staerting ModRana, you had "fresh" allocation between memory and swap.

Now, depending on how aggressive swaping-out routines are on your setup, device would start to move-out some things to swap with passing time, even if you wouldn't be doing anything on device - more or less quickly.

Now, again, dependng on your settings, increased memory "consumption" by using ModRana could "convince" swaping routines, that more things need to be stockpiled in swap at faster pate, freeing memory - even if actual memory consumption is much lower.

In any case, ModRana itself hardly have any control over it.
