  The problem is that none of this is appropriate to expose regular users to. If this feature goes in, it needs //perfect// defaults, because 99.99% of users will never change the defaults even if they are annoyed by them.
  
  I would recommend changing the default threshold from 25% to 10%, and automatically detect swap space rather than making the user configure it.
