Use of ramdisk

[Atul Gosain]

Hi

Im using Nagios to monitor about 35 hosts and 250 services on my network.
The server is P-3 500Mhz and 256 mb memory running Redhat Linux 7.2 and 
kernel version of 2.4.7-10.
The CPU load of the server used for monitoring is increasing day by day. 
We have allready tried to optimize the services checks delay etc, but 
still there needs to be some optimization.

I have seen the page in the documentation of Nagios about tuning the 
performance.
Im left with an option of going for the ramdisk for storing the logs. 
Has anybody used Ramdisk before.
What are implications of using ramdisk??
Please advice.

Thanks
Atul.
