I have about 200MB of disk space available for A/UX, and am wondering
how large of a swap space to allocate.  I plan on running X11 and Emacs,
and plan to do a fair amount of compilation.  At work, we use 140MB
swap partitions, but then, we do extensive DB and Lisp work.  Any
suggestions on how much swap space makes sense for A/UX?  I'm thinking
somewhere between 40MB and 60MB.
