'BFS with no indices in a file' is very nice for Mozilla-development.
Also it has the nice side-effect of closing all tracker views from
development on rebooting. To some that might be annoying though.
Here's my cookbook if anyone's interested :)
Make BFS-file (3000 *1024k size):
#!/bin/sh
dd if=/dev/zero of=mozdev.bfs bs=1024k count=3000
mkbfs -noindex 2048 mozdev.bfs Mozilla
sync
Mount BFS-file:
#!/bin/sh
mkdir /mozdev
mount ~/mozdev.bfs /mozdev
