# tmpfs apt cache
|
||
|
|
||
|
**Please Note: this will use 512M RAM for the tmpfs (it'll usually be smaller) and can cause apt automatic updates to fail. You'll need/want to watch your logs and automatic updates if using this setup.**
|
||
|
|
||
|
The below commands will enable tmpfs (in memory filesystem) for ```/var/cache/apt``` which has heavy disk write turnover due to automatic updates.
|
||
|
|
||
|
``` sh
|
||
|
|
||
|
sudo -sHu root
|
||
|
rm -r /var/cache/apt/*
|
||
|
cat >> /etc/fstab <<EOF
|
||
|
tmpfs /var/cache/apt tmpfs size=512M,defaults,noatime,nodiratime 0 1
|
||
|
EOF
|
||
|
|
||
|
mount /var/cache/apt
|
||
|
df -h /var/cache/apt
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
