Computer Tips - Raspberry Pi: Speed up boot

Date: 2026aug14 OS: RaspberryPi OS Language: bash Q. Raspberry Pi: Speed up boot A. I did:
systemd-analyze blame
And noticed systemd-tmpfiles-clean.service was taking 1.5 minutes! So I fixed it by moving the tmp files to a RAM disk (tmpfs). Obviously only do this: - If you can spare the memory - Your /tmp files are not already in memory You can do:
df -h /tmp
If you get something with "tmpfs" like this then its already in memory:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on tmpfs 8.0G 32K 8G 1% /tmp
To install it:
sudo cp /usr/share/systemd/tmp.mount /etc/systemd/system sudo systemctl daemon-reload sudo systemctl enable --now tmp.mount
Next boot was much faster. And now there is less wear on my SD-card.
