+MOZTMP
+======
+
+Firefox is not the fastest browser on earth. But some issues can be resolved by moving its files to a RAM-disk. This ensures that all the cache and stuff can be directly served from RAM and firefox does not need to access the harddisks.
+
+
+Things to have in mind before using it
+--------------------------------------
+
+- Firefox' directories can be quite huge. Only use this script if you can spare 100-200MB of RAM.
+- This script creates a backup copy. But if your computer is not able to make a normal shutdown (e.g. some crash), all things done in the session is lost (it's only in RAM - remember?).
+- This script is written for and tested only on Gentoo Linux with OpenRC. It should work on any other OpenRC-system though (are there any others?).
+
+Install
+-------
+
+Installation is easy: Download the files and put them in /etc/init.d/ and /etc/conf.d/ respectively. Do not forget to change the conf.d/moztmp file to fit your needs.
