return a ramdisk object
#### ramdisk(volumeName)
var disk = ramdisk('my_ramdisk')##### ramdisk#create(size[, callback(err, mount)])
* size - {integer} the size of the volume in MB
* callback - {function}
- err - {Error} error message
- mount - {string} the mounted block, in case of error is undefined
##### ramdisk#delete(volume[, callback(err, res)])
* mount - {string} the mounted block
* callback {function}
- err - {Error} error message
- res - {string} return 'ok' in case of success, in case of error is undefined
>Note: delete will eject the volume and remove the mount folder
Usage
`js
var ramdisk = require('node-ramdisk')var disk = ramdisk('my_ramdisk')
var volumePoint
// create a disk with 100MB of size
disk.create(100, function (err, mount) {
if (err) {
console.log(err)
} else {
volumePoint = mount
console.log(mount)
}
})
// when isn't needed then delete the disk
disk.delete(volumePoint, function (err) {
if (err) {
console.log(err)
} else {
console.log('ok')
}
})

darwin (bad performance - is taking around 1 sec. to create the disk in my macbook pro mid 2012)*
linux (good performance - 20/30 mls to create the disk in a vagrant vm with few resources)*
