Depending on your image processing needs, this temp / swap directory might grow to a very large size, if your system drive C: SSD has very limited space, consider placing this directory into some HDD with plenty of free space (like 20+ gigabytes preferably).

We don't have hard facts on the swapping file size requirements, but so far had no issues with 20gb or so when working with monster 40,960 x 40,960 resolution images.
