Well, with 8Gb RAM, i recommend use tmpfs on PORTAGE_TMPDIR, just while u |
| 2 |
are compiling anything. |
| 3 |
Or even with 6Gb too. |

|

I don't worry to much about use the SSD, the only thing that i do is use |
| 6 |
distfiles, music/video/photos on HDD to safe space. |
| 7 |
And the TMPDIR thing when i'm compiling a lot of things. |
