Copying to tmpfs is copying to memory, and copying to memory in |
| 9 |
/some/ form must occur in ordered to operate on the files at all, that |
| 10 |
is, with any build at all, so I don't see the problem, at least if you're |
| 11 |
working on a machine with say 2+ gigs RAM. (There might be problems on a |
| 12 |
half-gig RAM machine, but that's not particularly appropriate as a |
| 13 |
developer machine in any case, these days, unless you're talking |
| 14 |
embedded, which you didn't mention.) |

But of course, gentoo/portage lets you do it your way too, as |
| 17 |
demonstrated by the hacks you posted. =:^) |
