I was able to mount it to a tmpfs partition. There was no change in

So that would mean my disk is not a contribution factor right?
I'm just following this thread because of curiosity.
tmpfs? Or, do you mean ramfs (like Ralf spoke of). I believe there was a

"tmpfs is backed by the swap file, which is on disk."
Therefore, I would think you would not see a difference.
