Thanks. I'm using an SSD already, so I don't think I'd gain much from
using a RAM disk (though RAM is technically faster than an SSD, the
overhead of emulating a disk probably cancels that out).
Linux is pretty good at using any available RAM for disk cache, so I'm
not sure if a RAM disk would help you out or not.
Thanks for the info, it's good to know I can beef up the RAM should I
decide to load more tasks onto the F/E.
