 The modern GNU C library (and thus the Linux kernel) defines the 
@file{/dev/shm} directory for this purpose in the RAM (POSIX shared memory).
 To build in it, you can use the GNU build system's ability to build in a 
separate directory (not necessarily in the source directory) as shown below.

+When running the developer-build script without any options in the Gnuastro's 
top source directory, default values will be used for its configuration.
 As with Gnuastro's programs, you can inspect the default values with 
@option{-P} (or @option{--printparams}, the output just looks a little 
different here).
 The default top-level build directory is @file{/dev/shm}: the shared memory 
directory in RAM on GNU/Linux systems as described in @ref{Configure and build 
in RAM}.
