I do a lot of compiling on my laptop using Catalyst for embedded.
I upgraded my RAM to 8GB (2x4GB = 90$ ebay).
I mount /var/tmp as tmpfs.
Thats how I keep my SSD ;)

I got 16Gbs in my rig and I mounted portages work directory on tmpfs, it
was actually slower. That is likely a good idea to keep from wearing
out the SSD but it doesn't seem to make anything compile faster.
Strange, it actually got faster on mine when doing that.
Did you mount with "noatime"? :)

Yep. It actually took a few seconds longer compiling in memory. I
thought that was weird to tho. It doesn't make much sense to me.
