That's good to hear.
However, even if we assume that this is a peculiarity of the specific card that I'm using that fact remains that is handled worse in the F11 builds than the F9 builds. 
As I said swap handling is certainly not the utmost priority so I wouldn't invest a lot on it, particularly since I can easily correct it.
I just note it here so if unexpected boot failures appear people might remember to ask for swap files too.
