Your *shrug* puts some (eloquent...probably excellent as well) perspective on the matter, but I'm still bothered by what's happening.
Swap files have always been a fuzzy issue, but when joemike explained a while back that they're not necessarily created as needed, but also as requested by apps against future possible need, I thought I finally had something of a handle on them.
Since I've upgraded to El Cap, though, I'm seeing swap files constantly created out of the blue...without even a hint of a reason (first with 8GB RAM and now with 16GB), and I'm wondering if it's a bug or perhaps something on my end?
