I had a medium sized project in Ruby on Rails as git repo inside vm.

It was slow to do 'git status' and other common commands. Restarting RoR app was also slo. I've put repo on RAM disk which made the whole experience at least few times faster.

Since all was in vm that I rarely restarted I didn't have to recreate files on ram disk all that often. I was syncing changes with the persistent disk with rsync running periodically.
