Hardware solution: http://www.superssd.com/products_sub.htm Software solution (Solaris 9 12/03 or better) see http://docs.sun.com/db/doc/817-0690/6mgflntjs?q=ramdisk&a=view or if not Solaris 9, maybe - http://www.sunmanagers.org/pipermail/summaries/2000-December/000135.html Thanks to: Darren Dunham Derek Olsen and to Rich Teer who reminded me about: "If RAM gets in short supply, the kernel will happily page out stuff on the RAM disk to swap (unless the pages are locked in memory). Given enough RAM, something in a VM backed /tmp will not be paged to disk, and hence will be equivelent to a RAM disk." It is true that using a RAM DISK may NOT be the best solution or the best usage of real memory. Your mileage may vary.
