b) Use a RAM-based filesystem (ie: a memory disk or SSD) for the data storage [memory disk will be faster] with a Smaller pool - Your seed data should be a copy of the datastore on disk filesystem; at startup time copy the storage files from the physical to memory.
A bigger gain can probably be had if you have a tightly controlled suite of queries that will be run against the database and you can spend the time to tune each to ensure it performs no sequential scans (ie: Every query uses index lookups).
