I feel like this is mixing agendas. Is the goal freeing up /temp more regularly (so you don’t inadvertently rely on it, to save space, etc) or is the goal performance? I feel like with modern nvme (or just ssd) the argument for tmpfs out of the box is a hard one to make, and if you’re under special circumstances where it matters (eg you actually need ram speeds or are running on an SD or eMMC) then you would know to use a tmpfs yourself.

(Also, sorry but this article absolutely does not constitute a “deep dive” into anything.)
