Good answer, Solar! Some of your ideas may apply to our own situation, as well; we have a MySQL user causing some impact with constant queries.

Questions: Can I mount a tmpfs under my simfs? I can't mount the whole VPS as tmpfs nor noatime, but a tmpfs under simfs sounds like a great solution here. If I can then set MySQL's tempfile directory to it, you're right that it could reduce our disk traffic significantly.
