You can have /etc/svc/volatile be a tmpfs mount today if you want. Just need to make sure your brand / boot time code is doing the right thing. In both the GZ and NGZ, /etc/svc/volatile is tmpfs, but we also wanted it that way. That said, I'd try and figure out *why* it's being hammered and make sure it's functioning correctly before you worry about the file system type.
