I did move my /var/log to a ramdisk. since the rpi isn't doing anythng but running weewx, I don't expect there is much other writing to it.
oh, and I got a high write endurance microSD card, too, after killing my first one. thats something I hate about SD cards and USB Sticks, they don't have any diagnostics ala smartctl, so there's no way of knowing how much write endurance they have left.
