For a while since RAM sizes have gotten so big I would set up linux servers without swap at all. I figured what is a 2GB swap file going to do if the system has already exhausted 128GB of real RAM?
I never saw any issues doing this, but I learned that linux ideally wants some swap space, which it will use for some kind of housekeeping stuff.
