What is everyone's opinion for ram disk best practices? This can be specific to Jellyfin or in general.
I saw in gaming09's signature that he used a ram disk for transcoding files. I decided to do that as well for performance reasons and to reduce the amount of writes to my SSD. Even though my aging Intel x25-M G2 still has 97% of its write endurance left.
Is there any reason to use /dev/shm over setting up a tmpfs in an arbitrary directory? I opted for the latter.
