  | So if memory is not the problem add something like this to /etc/fstab:
  | /dev/wd0b /tmp  mfs     rw,async,noatime,nosuid,-s=20000

Does async on an mfs really achieve anything useful?

I'd guess that noatime might save just a tiny fraction of cpu time,
but is that really worth it either?

Both of those options are really tailored to saving disc accesses aren't
they, and aren't really likely to be all that useful for a mfs filesys.

Or am I missing something fundamental there?
