[2025-09-23] - tmpfs Setup Fix

Fixed

  • one-button-optimizer.sh: Fixed critical issue where tmpfs setup was not working
    • Added missing setup_tmpfs() function that was referenced but not implemented
    • Enhanced tmpfs analysis to actually scan system for cache directories
    • Added intelligent profile recommendation based on RAM size and existing cache data
    • Fixed tmpfs persistence by generating proper fstab entries
    • Updated systemd service to restore tmpfs mounts after reboot

Enhanced

  • tmpfs Analysis: Now scans for actual cacheable data:
    • Browser caches (Chrome, Firefox, Chromium)
    • Package caches (/var/cache/apt)
    • Temporary files
    • Shows actual cache sizes and provides intelligent recommendations

Technical Details

  • Issue: When users selected "yes" for tmpfs setup, nothing happened because the setup_tmpfs function was missing
  • Root Cause: The function was called in main() but never defined
  • Solution: Implemented complete tmpfs setup with intelligent sizing and persistence

Testing

  • Added test script (test-tmpfs-fix.sh) to verify functionality
  • Confirmed syntax validation passes
  • Verified tmpfs analysis logic works correctly

Previous versions

  • Initial implementation with zram, kernel tuning, and basic tmpfs detection
