as an ordinary user not programmer of tmpfs i can say that:

1) runs fine for months in production environments, including case with 
over 40 mountpoints (jails)
2) runs really fast when memory is available.
3) performance is bad in case that swapping actually is used. It reads 
from swap with too small chunks. it's a place for improvement here.

Its great thing as it does it properly - memory is immediately freed on 
delete, and no caching of memory disk like with md(4).
