Not sure how he does it, but I do it via these:

cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness will give current value.

(or sysctl vm.swappiness)


To test/monitor,

free | egrep '^Swap:'
will show usage.

If you want something more in-depth, vmstat(8).
(If you want the shell to spit out vmem usage every 1s, do "vmstat 1")
