| |
Hello,
I recently saw that Solaris shares the drive space for swap and for the files in the /tmp directory (/tmp is mounted from the swap partition as filesystem type swapfs).
Has anybody thought about this? Has this already been done for linux in some patch somewhere? Are there solid reasons not to do this? would a significant performance impact be unavoidable? Would it be difficult to use the ulimit settings for quota on the '/tmp-filesystem'?
Greetings,
Jelle.
