It's in /var/vm?!?!  OK, that's not a place I would have expected. 
Does any other Unix variant stuff swap in /var?

So, it's currently taking 2GB disk space, and the "Activity Monitor" 
is reporting 7.87GB.  Anyone know if the 2GB is the actual used, or 
if it's really less?  I do know it definitely ends up swapping a fair 
amount.
