Just curious - anyone looking into Ramroot?

I know that MX Linux, like Debian, can run from RAM when booting a live-iso image via the toram boot option. I'm curious as to whether anyone is looking into being able to place the root partition into RAM during boot-up so as to speed up processes? I believe Arch Linux has something similar called Ramroot, but I haven't found much similar on the Debian-based distros.
It might be useful in my use-case because I have excess RAM (32GB) and a slow storage system (SCSI2, HDD) that can't take advantage of a SSD.
