2Possible duplicate of Is it possible reduce swap memory size? – Muzaffar Apr 26 '18 at 03:35

1@Muzaffar The linked question title looks promising but the answers only speak about changing the swap partition size or swappiness. Neither probably helps with reducing the size of swap file. – Melebius Apr 26 '18 at 07:38

You will break your system if you delete the 2GB swap partition without telling the system to stop using it. This is a Bad Idea. – waltinator Apr 27 '18 at 13:43
