A swap file on a different partition on the SAME disk as your windows folder will slow your system down, so if all your partitions are on a single HD just leave the swap file on your windows partition. If you have two or more drives, put the swap file on one or more of the disks without windows. Splitting your swap file only makes sense if all the parts are on different physical drives, otherwise your HD read head will jump all over the drive and you're system will run like traffic on monday morning.
