[SLUG] tuning swap

Hello. My system slows to a crawl when it's doing a lot of disk access;
I think this is because too much ram gets used for the disk cache, then
when I want to run anything else it pages like crazy. Anyone know off
the top of their head how to tune the maximum disk cache size?

Thanks,
