swap file
     
         a file used by a program or, more often,
        an operating system as swap space.  a swap file is usually
        allocated as a long contiguous section of a hard disk to
        reduce access time.  the disk space used for a swap file can
        not be used for other things.  under microsoft windows, swap
        files are recommended not to exceed three times the available
        ram and are usually 150 percent of the ram size.
