Here the output of memory real and swap values for a Mac OSX client:

   Memory              Used       Total  Percentage
green Physical            420M       1024M         41%
green Swap         4294967295M 4294967295M          0%


What means this hudge value for swap?

It's a bug. There is no swap information in the Darwin vm_stat output,
so it shouldn't be reporting those at all.
