All I can see is people making ominous warnings about, "the system might
be under more memory pressure", which I don't find at all compelling.
But if it does happen, you have that large sized swap right there which
you can cut down again if you need to.

I think I remember you saying that this system has 8 GiB of memory. That
is not a lot these days, just generally, but I don't think that using a
tmpfs for /tmp will have any noticeable impact beyond how your system
normally works.

Thanks,
Andy
