I looked into this, and we're not actually doing too badly - our syslogd doesn't fsync() after every log entry. I'm broadly in favour of using tmpfs, though. There's an argument that certain priorities probably want to stay on disk, but otherwise we can simply sync the tmpfs to disk on shutdown or reboot. -- Matthew Garrett | mjg59@xxxxxxxxxxxxx -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
