The F10 desktop we shipped on SD had swap. Our current JFFS2 filesystem
doesn't support swap. I don't think you have any evidence for us being
able to avoid a deal-breaker without adding swap, so I disagree.
If we can't find either a way to get a swap file working on JFFS2 or get
UBI working, maybe it does make more sense to use XFCE (and even that
might not work out well). I don't have a desire to ship something with
worse performance than the F10 SD build.
- Chris.
