I have an N800 and boot from mmc, and tried a swap partition on both the same, and on the secondary mmc, and in either case it was always slow and laggy.

I recently installed Ramzez, and turned off the swap partition, now things run a lot smoother, but I can't open as many programs at once since the swap size now is much smaller than my swap partition.
