| vorathiel21 | Hi people, i wanna put /home/user/.cache and /tmp directories in /run/shm to increase performance and clean temp files on every reboot. Can i do this with symlinks ?? | 19:14 |
| waltman | /tmp should already be getting clear on reboot. | 19:19 |
| waltman | cleared | 19:19 |
| waltman | Looking online, I think there might be a issue with running out of memory if you try to save too much to /tmp or .cache and have those really be in ram. | 19:21 |
| waltman | You might want to read through the issues raised here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/livecd-rootfs/+bug/1533639 | 19:26 |
| vorathiel21 | thnx for your answer. Yeah i read something like that, but i'll take that risk . At least to test ... | 19:27 |
| waltman | Also keep in mind that recently accessed files will be in the disk cache, so they'll already be in RAM | 19:28 |
| vorathiel21 | u got a point with that | 19:29 |
| vorathiel21 | hmmm | 19:29 |
| waltman | it's complicated! | 19:31 |
| vorathiel21 | i just don't want to declare two separated tmpfs in fstab . One fot /tmp another for /home/user/.cache ... | 19:31 |
| vorathiel21 | if i can put the two directories under /run/shm it's all in the same place | 19:33 |
| vorathiel21 | thnx for your help waltman | 20:36 |
| waltman | vorathiel21: tbh I've never tried to do this myself. You might get more of a response during the week than on a Saturday. | 20:49 |
| waltman | or on #ubuntu | 20:49 |
| swift110 | hey all | 20:50 |
