> It's too bad that RAM disks are not supported on OS X

I don't use them regularly, but the hdid manpage talks about adding RAM disks (and a quickie test I just ran let me make a disk and mount it, and I successfully put files there)

Here's a shell script from the man page:

             #!/bin/sh

              NUMSECTORS=128000
              mydev=`hdid -nomount ram://$NUMSECTORS`
              newfs_hfs $mydev
              mkdir /tmp/mymount
              mount -t hfs $mydev /tmp/mymount

(where NUMSECTORS is bytes)

Cheers,
