It depends on your hardware and how you use it: - Do you have significantly more than 2G of RAM? - Do you (have application that) use /tmp a lot? If you have more than 2G of RAM but not much more, a possibly interesting middle-ground would be to keep the tmpfs on /tmp and repurpose the old partition as swap. Regards, -- Nicolas George
