What no smiley? So long as you can be sure that all errors and interrupts between swap and unswap are handled and cause a swap back it's fine. I had a client that had an interactive pgm that swapped to a powerful profile when it was called and swapped back before LR. I had to show them that a sysreq 2 when you were in it left you at a command line running as the power profile. That doesn't happen with adoption.
