Here's another tip (and this is based on my own logic, which may be flawed, depending on how Windows works), if you have more than one disk drive, spread your swap space across multiple drives. This way, when swapping occurs, it's spread across multiple disks. And two disk heads are faster than one.

FYI, this could be dangerous for future upgrades. If you spread out the pagefile onto a disk volume that's dynamic, you could have trouble someday reverting back to basic disk to do OS upgrade...
