Preload files to memory

[namtih]

Of course your described method would be the top solution. But it would be so difficult to store all files safely that I can't imagine any real good and failure-safe solution for daily use.
So I think I will keep "the poor man's trick" for now. It's not perfext, but a first step

I would like to investigate the preload scenario a little bit more and I think the following tool would be helpful:

But unfortunately there is no deb package. Are you perhaps able to build one?
