You might want to have a look at Haiku's RAM disk implementation [1]
(not included in the default images). I wrote it mainly because BFS is
awfully slow when working with large source trees (extracting and
removing them). The driver uses private kernel API to directly access
physical memory and to avoid unnecessary copying.

So how big can a RAM disk be with this driver in 32-Bit Haiku?
