my new V880 and disk slices

Getting ready to load up solaris 9 on my new V880 with 2xCPU 4G mem and 6x72G
HDDs to paly with. I plan on leaving 4 HDDs for my DBA to load Oracle later
(SVM raid 5). I plan on mirroring my OS disk leaving me one 72G drive to play
with. I remember reading that leaving a 100M slice at the beginning for SVM.
I have read lately that Sun is leaning to fewer large slices instead of
more smaller. So, my plan is:

/svm 100m
/ 50G
/var 22G

Also, thoughts about making a smaller than twice mem size swap? I'm planning
on 8G swap since I will have the disk space right now.

Thanks, and I'll summarize
