- I'm considering setting up a RAM disk to speed up unbatching news. I
- question how to accomplish the feat, as the only reference to a path
- I can find that uuxqt might use is the spool: parameter in the static
- file. I don't want the entire spool on the RAM disk, maybe just /unbatch.
-
- Another thought, is that really worth doing? Or am I better off using
- a disk cache to speed things up? Ideas from those of you doing these
- kinds of things would be much appreciated.
