In our browser tests today in CI we use --disable-dev-shm-usage to disable the dev-shm usage. That makes Chromium use files on disk instead of RAM and that makes Chromium slower. In change 1198684 we remove the flag but that makes test fails. That could be fixed if we increase the dev-shm size from 1 gb to 2 gb in our CI.
With this change we can make Chromium a little bit faster in CI and make less overhead.

Reason:
/tmp is already mounted as RAM so it will probably not make any difference
