Duplicating files into /ram

At times having more than just an empty file or directory in /ram may be desirable. Larger clusters or performance-sensitive systems may want to duplicate certain system libraries into /ram to alleviate the overhead of going to NFS.

Other reasons to have certain files/directories copied into /ram are that any RAM* or LINK* directives can specify the -d flag to duplicate the specified files or directories into /ram. The maximum size of the ramdisk may need to be adjusted accordingly.
