Aihe: FLASH disk as swap
Hello,
I have a *simple* question:
it is possible use a FLASH drive as SWAP? someone told me that there
is a limited numbers of write that is possible doing, so that will
reduce the life of the flash. But what about SSD hard drives then? are
not NAND flash as well? and which is the best filesistem to use then?
(UBIFS? EXT4?...)
Oh obviusly... but why we need a swap?

I hope you like my questions, maybe one day I can also provide answers...
