Session data in a RAMDISK (linux)

What a stroke of genius. [ding!] I’m sure some people think it’s obvious, but what a great application of RAMDISK!

Sessions are generally small, and putting them in a RAMDISK eliminates IO activity from storing/retrieving session data without having to change anything in PHP..
