That's roughly the amount of swap space that would be needed if the
process wrote all of its dirty pages out. It's really noise. If you
want the "official" man page stuff:
SZ approximate amount of swap space that would be required if
the process were to dirty all writable pages and then be
swapped out. This number is very rough!
