Additionally, it may be counter-productive because /tmp is usually mounted as tmpfs, thus tmp files occupy RAM, and cleaning RAM usually optimizes for battery lifetime because it reduces the need for swapping. I think the original intention behind this is not to wake up spinning disks - but it is almost impossible to ensure that anyway because standard flushing behavior of unix fs simply does not support this. For anyone wanting to optimize for that, they are smart enough to also optimize systemd for it. -- Replies to list only preferred. _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
