Yeah. I'm getting personal here. Lennart has put a lot of edits into Fedora that are all about copying a design philosophy that has been disasterous where it has been used. (Or perhaps getting the Fedora community to do the grunt work on his Master's thesis on things that shouldn't be done in an OS?) Edits that will have to be rolled back if Fedora is to survive as the testbed for an enterprise class OS. Very costly edits. Edits that have been eating my sack time, which is why I've been taking it personal. But, as has been danced around in this thread several times already, allowing /tmp to consume half of a system's putative RAM is really, really perverse. (Unless you have stock in a company that sells RAM and CPUs with >32 bit addressing.) No, you can declaim how the system will auto-swap the RAM and "adjust things for you", but that is adding to the cycles the CPUs have to waste doing things that are just plain unnecessary. tmpfs is there precisely because /tmp is not fast enough for certain applications. Those applications should know who they are. Leave it like that. -- Joel Rees -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
