I'm not sure a ramdisk will increase performance much, but it is surely
much work.  If you want short response times, use a machine with enough
RAM, so that even if first invocation is a bit slow, further invocations
will use disk cache in RAM.  512 MB of RAM is the bare minimum on a
modern GNU/Linux with a fat desktop like Gnome or KDE, but several
gigabytes are not too much if you run big or many ly files, or if you
use a lot of programs simulatneously.

HTH,
