huh? Not sure how you're going to get around a whole bunch of extra writes when you're dealing with swap space. Good filesystem design can only help you so much.
The only reason they would enable virtual memory is if they think their flash chips can handle the extra writes. Assuming the results of a quick Google search are correct, it appears that VM is disabled on the iPhone. Enabling it would probably improve performance, but it would reduce the lifespan of the phone.
