/tmp as tmpfs?
Should you have enough physical memory in your system (I'm doing this with 4Gb)
mount /tmp as a tmpfs
my line from /etc/fstab
tmpfs /tmp tmpfs auto,size=512M,uid=0,gid=0,mode=1777 0 0
There are some progs that store data between reboots in /tmp (although they should use /var/tmp) so it's potentially dangerous.
It means that thumbnails stored here get wiped and regenerated after every boot but if the data in /tmp is in memory then it's quicker (no HDD access time) and it is lost at power down.
(running on opensuse 11.1 and yet to see any problems)
