Hi, 

A quick look at the size of my desktop's /tmp is: 

spirit@Vereniki ~ $ du -sh /tmp/
641M    /tmp/
spirit@Vereniki ~ $ 

Maybe it's just me (cause of the way I'm using /tmp, eg. I use that dir
to unpack sources of packages I want to temporarily look inside and
for anything else *temporary*, also some programs (eg. browsers) use it
for temporary storage) but if there are others like me, I don't
think we'd like to do this in RAM space (tmpfs). For /run and /var/run
dirs it's ok I suppose.
