Wait, hold on a sec. Again, not necessarily a problem but we should be clear on this. With /tmp in RAM, it's not flushed at _boot_, but at _shutdown_ (clean or not). That may be detrimental to fixing problems (like surprise reboots). The benefit may be worth that downside but we should at least document the distinction. I'm going edit the wiki but I'm not sure what exact wording should be. I guess the *benefit* is "clean /tmp on boot" and discussion of the implication should be elsewhere -- the user experience section, I think. > The page says the user experience should barely change -- which I think is > really downplaying the scope of this change. Right.
