   I'd like to lol a little bit. ;-) The raspi is designed as a cheap learning   
   plattform for everyone. Your lession learned was that swap can be useful. The   
   next lesson would be that it's better to avoid swap for performance but this   
   one you knew already. People new to IT would learn that the hardware resources   
   need to match the task(s). Fullfilled its task the raspi had.
