Yeah I was just shooting from the hip trying to find some other way to remove as much I/O from my physical disks as possible. I'm building a pool of more-or-less "disposable" front-end filter servers. If I could move EVERYTHING of any significant I/O onto a ramdisk, I might be able to get by with cheap/slow SATA drives, even for a machine with very high load.
Are there any other directories I could consider running on a ramdisk? Are there any "write-through" ramdisk options that might be sendmail mqueue safe?
Thanks.

The rest of your mail becomes obsolete then.
