But swap file should have bigger swappiness, "Swapper" gives only 10, which is almost nothing IMO... unless you can find something to activate bigger swappiness (except Swapper 2, it's pain in ass).

Note: You need to disable Compcache/zRAM as those features use swap too, causing conflicts. After enabling swap, make sure to check in some app where you can see memory details that swap is running on your defined size, it might be possible that there's no swap space or that zRAM/Compcache is still active instead.

I don't understand, i activate the swap( like you said) but, my memory free is just 28mb... i make a swap of 512mb( 16gb SD Card)...
Why?

To see if it works you need to type 'free' in terminal emulator. AFAIK swap must be supported by kernel and some custom kernels support it.

making swap using cwm

---

i am telling you another way of making swap without the swapper app

AND PLEASE MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR SDCARD ON YOUR PC BEFORE USING THIS METHOD

for this you must have clockworkmod recovery on your phone

just go to cwm recovery by pressing back botton when starting the phone
then go to ‘advance‘ using vol down key and press menu to enter then go to ‘partition sd card‘ and make partition of your choice

to confirm open ‘terminal emulator‘ and write ‘free‘ hit enter

yuppyyy you got

and please make a back of your sd card on computer as this will format your sd card

press the thanks botton if you think i helped you

you have all the reason, the app for check is setcpu in info-memory, or terminal emulator typing "free"

use setcpu in INFO--MEMORY and check "swap" and "swapfree", or in terminal emulator typing "free"

this is very nice

keep it up

Swap size is 0 size in shell "free" command

In your config you can either use compcache or swap. If you want swap it's easiest to create swap partition via cwm recovery (backup content of sd first!) and disable compcache via cm settngs

uh? but i tested in minicm7 2.2.0 and works very fine what is the size of your memory and what you put in the line?
