Excuse me, could you please clarify what you mean by "swap space" in the context of cryptocurrency and finance? Are you referring to the amount of memory allocated for virtual memory swapping in a computer system, or is there a specific financial or cryptocurrency-related term that I'm not familiar with? If it's the former, it's typically not a metric that's directly relevant to cryptocurrency or finance. However, if you're referring to something else, I'd be happy to provide a more accurate answer if you could elaborate further.

When dealing with systems having less than 2GB of RAM, the recommended swap space allocation is double the size of the RAM.

This approach balances the need for virtual memory with the potential performance implications of excessively large swap spaces.

As an example, a system with 4GB of RAM would ideally have 6GB of swap space allocated, adhering to the RAM + 2GB rule.

This ensures that in times of memory pressure, the system has sufficient virtual memory to prevent applications from crashing due to lack of resources.
