Is it possible to create a "copy2swappartition" cheatcode?

Thoughts on copy2ram on machines with not that much physical RAM but with internal harddisk(s) with large native Linux swap partitions:
Would the performance of Porteus on such a machine profit when the modules got completely loaded not into RAM - due to not that much available RAM - but into the swap partition?
Especially when the boot device is a slow USB stick, and the swap device is on the much quicker internal hard disk partition?
If that would bring performance boost, how could that be implemented?
