Hmm, FF downloads files to /tmp initially. I just deleted 1 GB of pdf files that FF has downloaded over the past however long and not bothered deleting!
Which is one reason I don't use tmpfs for /tmp.
So how would one size a /tmpfs system to allow that? The largest download file has to fit in it apart from whatever really temporary files and temporary sockets etc are regularly created there.
It is not all downloads, but things you click to view, it has to download them first somewhere. Otherwise, imagine you download a few isos, it would fill up even swap. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
