I have a suspicion that viewing certain PDFs in okular causes X server
to leak memory. Currently it is using 1.8 GB after 3 days uptime. Has
anyone else observed that? Is there a way to inspect X server's memory

Nice way to handle that. I only had problems with libreoffice.
But i mount the tmpdir ondemand, and when libreoffice needs update i use
the SSD instead.
I have 16GB too, and in general use 4GB for tmpfs on TMPDIR, i think only
some packages need more then that.

I think u misunderstand, i belive that what Schuster have is tmpfs always
mounted on /var/tmp/portage, and PORTAGE_TMPDIR will be that.
When he need more than 8Gb in some package PORTAGE_TMPDIR will be
/var/portage/tmp and that on HDD.
What i have is /var/tmp/portage on tmpfs config in fstab with
