then, but what about a symlink in /tmp to the previous mentioned home based subdir, which can be mounted anything you want? If I'm not incorrect, while the first access to the symlink might take a bit to spin up the disk (in the worst case scenario), after that, the symlink should be cached, and the system will only be looking in memory to see the redirect, and go from there to find the mounted tmpfs.
Yeah, that's a neat idea.
I'm still pining over how to do this properly, and also waiting for the jack authors to decide the 'official' way to do it.
I think they are working on a way for jackd to 'tell' client apps where the temp directory is. This would be the best solution, but it may be tricky for them to do.
Luckily we have several months till next release. :-)
