I love using ram disks in #Linux. I've got plenty of ram, and use ssds, so I have the less important, commonly-written stuff in ram disks.
For example, $user thumbnail directory. Don't care if it gets wiped at reboot, and don't want Thunar / Dolphin et al writing thousands of small files to ssd all the time.
Not sure how meaningful it is, but also have #MozillaFirefox profile dir in memory, synced to ssd every 30 min. Less wear and tear on the ssd, and I've seen no downsides.
