That swap size seems extremely large. Is this the value they suggested?
It would seem that if a static swap file improves stability, this would indicate that the memory allocation code has bugs - the same kind of bugs that create memory leaks.
This is somewhat surprising since there are a lot of tools available to check for such memory allocation errors.
