personally I would hide /proc/swaps on a guest,
but my inquiry was more about what you would like
to see there, as it doesn't make much sense to
'adapt' the existing data ... let me give you an
example:

# cat /proc/swaps
Filename Type Size Used Priority
/dev/sda3 partition 257039 30132 -1
/dev/sdb3 partition 257039 0 -2

now let's assume, inside the guests A,B and C, we have
128M, 384M and 768M of swap defined ... what would the
/proc/swaps entry look like in each of them?

TIA,
Herbert
