I use a very small RAM disk to put batch files on.  I store them on the hard
disk as a zip file (big enough to store without much waste space) and unzip them
onto the RAM disk at boot time.  I've tried larger RAM disks and found I didn't
use them effectively.  When I got more memory, I made the small RAM disk, and
use the rest for cache and expanded.
