The S8 install is in progress, and I wish to comment on swap partitions.

I tried without success to perusade the d-i folk that on most peecess 
(and like Macs and such) where the OS is being installed on a single 
disk, that a swap partition is a bad idea.

Rather than repeat my argument here, see:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2004/08/msg00016.html

No, I've not done benchmarks. It seems so clear to me I wonder that 
anyone would challenge my argument in that manner.
