Note: this was tested and used on DSM5 and partly on 6. Since V7 I am not using this anymore.
Got and ssh into your box. Find what is using swap:
find /proc -maxdepth 2 -path "/proc/[0-9]*/status" -readable -exec awk -v FS=":" -v TOTSWP="$(cat /proc/swaps | sed 1d | awk 'BEGIN{sum=0} {sum=sum+$(NF-2)} END{print sum}')" '{process[$1]=$2;sub(/^[ \t]+/,"",process[$1]);} END {if(process["VmSwap"] && process["VmSwap"] != "0 kB") {used_swap=process["VmSwap"];sub(/[ a-zA-Z]+/,"",used_swap);percent=(used_swap/TOTSWP*100); printf "%10s %-30s %20s %6.2f%\n",process["Pid"],process["Name"],process["VmSwap"],percent} }' '{}' \; | awk '{print $(NF-2),$0}' | sort -hr | head | cut -d " " -f2-
Update synoinfo.conf to correct memory in MB (https://www.gbmb.org/gb-to-mb) for 8GB:
/etc/synoinfo.conf & /etc.defaults/synoinfo.conf
mem_default_mb="8192"
mem_max_mb="8192"
Do:
/usr/syno/share/synotuned/profiles/performance_throughput.conf
&
/usr/syno/share/synotuned/profiles/performance_latency.conf

Thanks @bruvv , are you with a vanilla 7 setup?
