Comment 26 for bug 516834

@Jeremy:
For me, it's a hell of a job to perform a test like you suggested in comment #20.

Furthermore, I think such a test is superfluous. For testing the current kernel in Lucid, you only have to execute this command in the terminal: cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness

That's all. On the basis of this information you can simply ask the kernel team whether they've changed the swappiness in the newest kernels (I bet they didn't). This is a very normal question, I think. And it would save us a lot of work.
