Some years later (2015?) I tried to speed up the build of JavaScript projects by moving my dev-folder to a RAM-disk, but it didn't really move the needle. So disk-IO is not the limiting factor when building.

Or your OS started caching the filesystem more agressively to RAM, so any piece of code that does heavy IO is effectively put on a RAM-disk automatically.
