Swapfile is a Windows term, but it's a virtual memory file the OS 
uses and we don't have to deal with. AFIK you can't affect it on OS X 
anyway, or if you can it's a bunch of UNIX nonsense in the "no 
serviceable parts inside" area.

Just put Logic on your system drive (or partition) and your samples 
on another, and you'll be fine. And if you're only using EXSs lightly 
- i.e. you're not streaming a lot of voices - you can ignore this.
