no, but I might be forced to use it later when udev >=181 becomes |
| 16 |
stable. |

The only I know is shutdown, when / is remounted read-only. |

I do not see any advantage in having /run on tmpfs. |

I'm not sure it is true. I have read somewhere that tmfps is |
| 30 |
never moved to swap. Anyway, I prefer not using swap at all. |
| 31 |
And I have better use for physical memory than holding some |
| 32 |
more-or-less statical data... |

I always liked Gentoo because it gives me complete freedom |
| 36 |
and control over my system. *I* could decide what I want to |
| 37 |
use or not. And I'd be very dissapointed if Gentoo one day goes |
| 38 |
to "YouCanNotTurnThisOffBecauseWeKnowWhatIsTheBestForYou" way... |
