I've not looked at tmpfs. My guess is that if /tmp is empty, or has
little in it, there really shouldn't be half (which is the default) of
the RAM a
I have a computer with only 128MB ram, it chuggs along very slowly in X
Windows. in fstab there is a /tmp tempfs ramdisk, I commented it out so
that it now uses the root /tmp. However, performace is still about the

Well, would Solaris recognize it as such?

Well, it's basically a RAM disk. It would be nice if tmpfs could use
some of available swap, I suppose. Still, that "memory" is going to be

tmpfs has a couple of mount options:

I have 384M of RAM and I'm using VMWare. Currently I give it 128M to
play with, which because of that shared memory tmpfs Solaris-like voodoo
is implemented under /tmp.
For whatever reason, my system has set a maximum size of 188M on /tmp.
