In the reiserfs-raw approach it was done by not having a swap.state file
or "permanent" StoreEntry structures. Instead the objects were hashed
directly onto the filesystem meta structure tree (sort of the inode
layer in ext2/UFS, but with a much larger and dynamic namespace).

And if you don't even have the file then the start up is even quicker.
Simply pick up where you was, doing what you did.
