it means swap page sizes on modern pcs (W7) can be increased
You have to be really really desperate to do any swapping. Personally I'd rather spend the money on more RAM than on fancy disks, for a speed improvement of a couple of orders of magnitude.
NB this pc has more proceesing power than the first mainframe I worked on
I rather expect that my phone has more processing power than the first mainframe I worked on. (My watch probably hasn't.)
