I was hopeful somebody would respond to my query regardingRun:
the relative speeds of swapfiles vs swap partitions. If
they're anywhere close in performance a swapfile seems
worth trying.
vmstat -t 10 60
in a terminal while you are doing your daily tasks in other windows to see how much swap I/O there really is.
This command does 60 measurements with an interval of 10 seconds, the si and so columns show the swap I/O.
Usually it is not much, so I wouldn't worry too much about performance.
