I'm still using a regular, spinning disk and Firefox is constantly waking it up.

Virtually any action taken (especially closing a tab, any tab) causes the above. I moved ~/.mozilla and ~/.fonts to a tmpfs which once used to be enough to make the disk spin-ups reasonable but not any more.

I changed the disk cache dirs

browser.cache.disk.parent_directory → string → /tmp browser.cache.offline.parent_directory → string → /tmp

to /tmp, which is also a tmpfs. Then I disabled disk cache

browser.cache.disk.enable False browser.cache.memory.enable True

but nothing seems to stop this crazy behaviour. What more can I do?

I looked through lsof and strace, Firefox seems to also be using /var/cache/fontconfig/ and .cache/fontconfig/ do I need to move those, too?

This is on Ubuntu 13.04 with Firefox 21.

OK. Moving ~/.cache to tmpfs brought an appreciable improvement. Apparently, disabling disk cache doesn't entirely disable disk cache.
