As Shiplu mentioned, you do not really need swap if you have that much
of physical memory.

However, the change was needed in the count= parameter. Calculate 4GB
in bytes and replace that number in count= parameter. Again, this 4GB
will be a waste of memory. Also creating swapfile on the same
partition does not give you much improvements.
