Thumbnails are turned off by default in Workstation. Would it be a good idea to mount all thumbnails to a tmpfs directory stored in RAM? Thumbnails rarely add up in significant size - I’ve generated up to 10,000 before and it barely took 1 GB. Would an entry in fstab like the following be ideal, or are there security risks in doing so?:
none /home/[username]/.thumbnails tmpfs rw,noexec,nosuid,size=20%,uid=1000,gid=1000,mode=0755 0 0
none /home/[username]/.cache/thumbnails tmpfs rw,noexec,nosuid,size=20%,uid=1000,gid=1000,mode=0755 0 0
