Swap Disk Allocation

Hi managers

I am in the process of redesigning my disk layout on the SAN for a 5.1b
cluster, on my previous iteration, the boot disk was
2.5 Gb, which didn't allow for much swap space. To increase the swap
space I used an internal disk.

The question is :

Should I increase the boot partition on the SAN to provide more Swap
space, or keep the
boot disk small and utilitze the internal disks.

The systems that will eventually make up my cluster are DS20's that
have scsi connected external drives.
