Firefox Cache
 
Quick question: I created a RAMDisk to store the browser cache in to speed internet browsing, but how do I go about moving the cache folder to the RAM folder?

Type about:config in the URLbar, then change the setting of browser.cache.disk.parent_directory to your desired location.

Soccer, if you have enough RAM, move temp & tmp there as well. (via environment vars)

Browser caches are a great start. At some point it becomes a tradeoff. If your set of operations is limited then dedicating RAM this way can help. For a general purpose system it's can be better to let Windows manage with a little assistance. (lowering the pagefile size, moving it and temps and ? to other spindles, setting Disablepagingexecutive, etc.) Also easier to debug when things go awry versus RAM disks that vanish.
