Why use a RAM disk? Why not just load the tables into HEAP tables?

Flash drives are solid state (no moving parts) so you can't break them.

I just looked into this. It looks like HEAP tables don't support the
BLOB field type and we are using it.

Just a thought, but perhaps you could set up a master/slave
on the box such that the master points to a RAM disk and the
slave points to disk. Then if someone pulls the plug or the
machine crashes, you'd still have almost all of the data on
disk. On startup, copy the slave's files to the RAM disk,
support the
BLOB field type and we are using it.

Why use a RAM disk? Why not just load the tables
could get running on QNX.
