NOTE: I _KNOW_ what the risks are.
Just for fun, I created a ramdisk on Linux, and put my online redologs
there. They are copied there on system startup by an rc-script. A
graceful system shutdown saves them back to HDD just before the
powershut. 

Not exactly what you asked for, but speeding things up quite well. I
must give the credit of this to Casey Dyke, who put his redo on /tmp on
Solaris some day, to speed up a huge load. tmp on Solaris is more or
less ramdisk. He posted about this here. It's quite easy on linux as
well. Tweak your boot parameters a little, to create ramdisk devices
that are big enough, create the filesystem, mount and there you go.

By the way, this is some form of backing up your online redologs ;-)

Best regards,
