That brings up an interesting topic. -- No, I didn't put /var/log on 
tmpfs, but /tmp, /var/run & /var/lock instead, because I was worrying 
about wasting tmpfs with big logs, since my box might be up for months. 

I think staled tmpfs file might eventually be swapped out of ram to HD to 
clear up space. Is that so? 

Is it a good idea to put chunky /var/log on tmpfs?
