tmpfs on /tmp default in Debiantmpfs on /tmp default in DebianPosted Jun 1, 2012 20:24 UTC (Fri) by wahern (subscriber, #37304)In reply to: tmpfs on /tmp default in Debian by ballombe Parent article: Temporary files: RAM or disk?

It's one thing to cater to stupid applications, its another to erect barriers to good design.
