Thanks for all the explanation, folks--after reading through them, I'm
definitely sticking with physical data for /tmp, as it seems a lot
safer. And while we're not crunched for memory yet, I'm sure that day
will come...
Also, Mark, thanks for the link to the funtoo site for tmpfs info--if
I'd decided to try memory-backed /tmp, that would definitely have
cleared up my questions. Even if that had popped up early in my search
(I was doing "tmpfs vm tmp", I think), I'm not sure I would have thought
to check a site called funtoo--good to know for future searches!
Thanks again, everyone!
Shannon
