Correct me if I am wrong but you really do not need 2GB of swap !
Moreso swap space is in fact limited to 2 GB tops.
To be honest you could set your swap to about 500 MB
that should do, with the amount of RAM you have it would hardly be touched.
I know they say double RAM equals SWAP size but I believe that was
when we were using 64 MB or RAM (such as) back in the day.

Rather use the space then using it as SWAP.

mash.
