When I copy files from one system to another I use rsync - that's another thread, though. Does it use a temp file?
Dunno about rsync, but 'mc' does, and it goes to /tmp.
All the arguments against tmpfs has been specific use cases. If you're not designing and administering your system to address the business use cases then you re failing. Arguing about disk vs tmpfs is so missing the point.
The point is not tmpfs being good or bad. The point is me as the administrator of my machine deciding whether /tmp is disk or ram. And IMHO, the current openSUSE default of having /tmp in disk, and /var/run in memory, is just fine. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
