Unless I needed a really big /tmp, I've been using /tmp on tmpfs for years (mfs on FreeBSD, tmpfs on solaris, and ramdisk on linux before tmpfs became available). It was much faster than anything else... no disk i/o involved if I had enough of memory, and I added the disk space as swap if I needed a bit more space. Try tmpfs on /tmp if you don't work with huge files in /tmp. -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, uh...@fantomas.sk ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.
