When should I worry about swap usage?

I've installed two new ASG 220s with HA, IPS, and web and email security on.  For the first few days RAM hovered around 65% with no swap usage.  About 5 days in swap usage suddenly jumped to 10%.  About a week later swap jumped to 20%.  3 days later takes us to today, and my swap usage has jumped to 30%.  Over this time RAM usage has been fairly stable, hovering in the mid to high 60s and occasionally hitting low 70s.

Should I be worried about the increase in swap usage?
