Tiger Support - Version: 1.1.2, 8/25/2005 01:07PM PST

If you visit the developer's site there is source code available. Hopefully we will have someone bite soon to make this Tiger compatible. Would sure be handy.
Works as advertised

Does what it says under Panther 10.3.8 on my PB - helps me to avoid a disk full alert on my relatively small boot partition, which was filling up with the increasingly bigger swapfiles. Now all my swapfiles get written onto another partition and interestingly they are all 76.2mb in size (no more getting bigger and bigger).
How do I use? - Version: 1.1.2, 2/20/2005 09:07PM PST

Does it work in panther? - Version: 1.1.2, 2/8/2004 07:40PM PST

pwrbk 17 inch with 2 partitions one for swap is there performance benefits still. Does panther eliminate the need for this.
No panther here - Version: 1.1.2, 12/2/2003 10:46PM PST

I don't enable root, so I see "check /etc/rc - VM already running" under Panther.
(I'm surprised it would make a difference, given that the app authenticates and thus should get root privileges.)
I don't recall any problems under Jaguar, oddly enough.

Just login as 'root' and Panther just purs along.
SwapCop works with 10.2 - Version: 1.1.2, 10/24/2003 05:50PM PST

as long as you login as 'root' for the initial change and then again for the cleanup (delete old swapfile on original partition).

from the link that LeonardShelby posted (just in case it disappears some time): Warning to all who want to use Swap Cop in 10.2 - just don't. All that'll happen is that you'll get an error message during bootup saying "check /etc/rc - VM already running." And your swap will still be where it was, in your main OS X partition. I received the following missive from Joshua Schrier via email; I hope he doesn't mind me quoting him. "There have been significant changes in SystemStarter and the disk-mounting process during boot in OS 10.2. We are currently working with the Darwin team to integrate the functionality of Swap Cop into the operating system, and will probably update the software for 10.2 at some point in the future, as we learn more from them."
