I have a mySQL database that is about 240 megabytes. I am loading it on
a Linux server with 2 gigs of RAM. I would like to have the whole table
reside in memory to save time from disk access. Is there any way to load
the tables into RAM on startup? I am thinking about creating a heap
table,
You may try using a Ramdisk as storage for mysql data folder.

From my experience: don't do anything.
Linux filesystem cache is really efficient and as soon as all your database
will be in the cache, you wont get any disk read anymore; only writes when
you INSERT/UPDATE data.
Our main database server has 2Gb RAM and the total size of all databases
is around
