It just shows the amount of used swap. This will be something from a few MB up to a few 100MB.
But it will not show the already written amount on that swap space. This info can be fetched via iostat (withh bb-power) or more sophisticated with following script (rely on the number of bytes, please):
I did realise that but I didn't want to depend on bbpower.
I didn't want to force people to have install dependenices for this to work.
However I like the look of your script (I didn't think of using diskatats) maybe I can re-jig it about to me more useful.
