1.) How big of SWAP file to use if any.
2.) If it makes sense to reduce the /tmp file size
3.) Binary load times depending where/how they are loaded
RAM loaded sfs/remastered sfs file loop mounted from RAM/Flash device
Before I start testing my different options, Am I correctly understanding how the default operational configuration is working and what modification could be made to improve binary load time?
Thanks Much

I run the XO-1 with 256MB swap the last 4 years and never run out of RAM, so I would think 256MB swap is OK.
I do not think will make a difference if you reduce tmpfs size. If it did would be probably for the worse. But frankly I never tried it
I find that there is not big difference, if any, between having the binaries on the sfS of savefile, because on the sfs they are compressed, so you read faster but you need some time to decompress them.
If you want to test you can try a Racy build that I made some time ago which has seamonkey in the main sfs. Takes quite some time to load...
BTW seamonkey is probably one of the slowest to load. Unless you want the mail and html editor all in one, i find it fairly poor. Google-chrome or Midori are better options
