Would running folding on a RAM Drive make it any more efficient?
Just a thought for the real experts out there.

hey, I'm an expert unfortunately I don't know the answer :(

I ran Seti@Home from a RAM drive once, and I didn't notice a speed difference.
You could just try it, be careful to back it up a lot, b/c if your system crashes you loose everything
