I ran across a suggestion about removing the swap file before sysprep
to reduce the image size but lost the link. Does anyone know it and
have tried it?
 
It is only necessary in cases in which you want to reduce the image size,
thereby reducing the amount of time to deploy the image.
It does work and you may find the article here:

This part answer the question I was worrying about :

"NOTE: The paging file setting is automatically set or resized during
the first restart of the computer to match the memory of the new
computer on the target computer."

I was afraid that after imaging it would complain about no paging
file, or create a 2MB paging file, or just run without paging file, or
some other unexpected behavior.
