in this google group, it has been written that the swap partition size is set in /usr/lib/systemd/system/tmp.mount.d/30_qubes.conf. This file also suggests that the default size is set by the initial memory assigned at boot time. Yet no matter what I change the value to, running free shows it to be 1GB.

FD: I'm running qubes 4.1

Does this help? Not sure it applies to 4.1.

neither suggestion seems to work. Not sure why, the tmp.mount.d/30_qubes.conf file does exist, and the tmp.mount service also exists and is loaded. But total swap size remains 1048572kB.
