Comment (by mascguy):
Another benefit of using a RAM disk:
Since our buildbots use case-sensitive volumes - and it's easy to miss
case mismatches locally, since 99+% of us probably have macOS
installations with case-insensitive volumes - create one that's case-
sensitive instead:
{{{
$ sudo bash -c 'dev=$(hdiutil attach -nomount ram://16777216) ; newfs_hfs
-s -v "MacPorts-RamDisk-8G" ${dev} ; mount -t hfs ${dev}
/opt/local/var/macports/build'
}}}
Bingo!
