And while we're on the topic:

My (and, apparently other people's:  [1]) swap partition stopped 
mounting after the upgrade. This is due to some fstab wrangling done to 
get ready for the new startup system. The link below has a good guide on 
fixing that.

Funny story: eclipse + cosmo + gaim + firefox with about 10 tabs just 
about fills up 768M of RAM.
