Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
tmpfs 8223848 224 8223624 1% /run
I know it does not use 8GB right now, yet I'd like to reduce
it to some lower value, not half of my physical memory.
How can I do it? Can I simply add line in fstab like:
none /run tmpfs size=128m 0 0 ???

Holy smoke ! Mine is doing the same thing.
tmpfs 7.9G 260K 7.9G 1% /run
But I also have this:
tmpfs 7.9G 0 7.9G 0% /var/tmp/portage
So, between those two, I could run out of ram since I have 16Gbs.
There is now TWO people that needs a answer to this question. Why does
it need that much anyway? It looks to me like a few hundred Mbs, like
Jarry posted, would be plenty. Jeepers creepers. lol

I suppose default size for tmpfs is half of physical memory,
if it is not configured somewhere else.
BTW, is there any way to turn this great feature off?
What is it good for? I do not see any advantage in having
/run on tmpfs...
