Ah yes, I forgot to say. I am on Linux. I've found using RAM instead of
my (mechanical) disk saves about 5 minutes of a roughly half-hour build.

What OS are we talking about?
(On Linux, ramdisks are mountpoints like any other so that would be
trivial; but then again, on Linux, the kernel is good enough at using extra
RAM for disk cache automatically, that you get the benefits of a RAMdisk
automatically).

Today I tried to build Firefox on a RAM disk for the first time, and
although I succeeded through trial and error, it occurs to me that there
are probably things I could do better. Could someone who regularly does
this make a blog post or an MDN page about their workflow and some tips and
tricks? I think it'd be useful to many people but I (read: Google) couldn't
find anything helpful.
Thanks!
