 |
|
I was wondering how to move cache to tmps? I have 16G of Ram by the way
I dont want to use systemd by the way.
I have /var/tmp with 1G as of now; thinking of also using 2G for Nginx pagespeed; 5G for cache Desktop.
I read this https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/SSD
profile-sync-daemon version 6 requires systemd; is there another way? |

Which cache? You want to have /var/tmp in Ram? Then you can use tmpfs in fstab:
| Code: | | none /var/tmp tmpfs defaults,noatime,nodiratime,size=3500M,noatime 0 0 |
But I wonder if loosing Ram for this is worth as it also reduces the buffers. And even my 3,5GB was too small for some of the ebuilds so I had to add a blacklist for packages not fitting and being built outside the tmpfs. I don't use tmpfs anymore today, just for the small /tmp with 512M.

I have also an SSD, 16 GB and no systemd and NO sync-daemon - XDG Cache on tmpfs is enough (I have the two browsers "falcon" and "konqueror"). My dir: /home/peter/.cache is empty, because all is in /tmp/peter/.cache
Here the two important lines in /etc/fstab:
| Code: | tmpfs /tmp tmpfs rw,noexec,nodev,nosuid,mode=1777 0 0
tmpfs /var/tmp/portage tmpfs rw,nodev,nosuid,size=10G,uid=portage 0 0 |
