This is fixed, as we use partman-swapfile by default, and that is
properly capped, even with high ram.

** Also affects: partman-swapfile (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** No longer affects: partman-swapfile (Ubuntu Wily)

** Changed in: partman-swapfile (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Fix Released

** Changed in: partman-auto (Ubuntu)
       Status: Triaged => Invalid

Bug description:
  I was trying to install on an 8GB virtual machine and it crashed on
  me.  Come to find out this is because I wanted 4GB of RAM which ended
  up creating a 4GB swap space and left a 4GB root partition which
  wasn't enough.
