When a program is loaded into the Memory ...

When a program is initally loaded into the Memory, by the kernel (i.e: When the kernel runs a process), swap space for any private data or stack space used by the process must be reserved. This reservation is made just in case private data or stack information would need to be paged out of physical memory into swap. This can be the reason by wich you have swap space used.

Regards. Hugo.
