Guix maybe, for a developer system you run out of RAM for everything that has serious demands in RAM and/or Diskspace for building. If waste of writes is your concern, getting a separate disk for /tmp is a good choice. As long as you don't have to build big applications from source/without substitutes tmpfs is alright. Been there, tried that and considered it now only for machines that will never build anything big. > What would be the best way to do so? > Can't test now, but what about > > (file-system > (mount-point "/tmp") > (device "tmpfs") > (type "tmpfs") > (flags '(no-dev no-suid)) > > ? > > -- > Pierre Neidhardt
