Reduce /dev/shm usage

[Nicolò Ongaro]

I'm running chromium on a device with limited resources and i would like to know it's possible to reduce /dev/shm usage under linux.

I know about the "--disable-dev-shm-usage" flag but that just moves the folder from /dev/shm to /tmp which will still use the same amount of RAM. I would also like to avoid having chromium writing these files on disk to avoid eMMC wear.

So what i'm looking for is some options or features that can be disabled the would reduce the amount of space required in /dev/shm. Some loss in performance would be acceptable.

Thanks
