The standard recommendation for swap space is double your RAM, but if you have 4 GB RAM or more, you can usually get away with less swap space. For instance, I recently upgraded my desktop machine from 4 GB to 8 GB RAM, and didn't bother changing the size of my swap space -- it's still equal to my RAM, so it's unlikely I'll overrun it.

For 2 GB RAM you should have at least 2 GB swap memory or more but ideally it should be double of your RAM (in this case 4 GB)
