Yes, that is what "minimum" means...

It is usually a better idea to leave VM at the minimum setting (physical RAM
+ 1 MB). This allows applications to leave unused parts of themselves on
disk, arther than in RAM. That way, you can run more applications
simultaneously, because your RAM is used much more efficiently. As long as
enough physical RAM is available, there won't be much of a slowdown.
