I'm thinking of having /tmp on its own partition… what would be a good filesystem to format it with?
The reason I ask is because the data being stored in /tmp is not permanent, so I don't need journaling, a fancy index, or anything.

I sometimes find moving
/tmp
to ram (tmpfs
) is the best solution (Especially on my setups which use a lot of disk intensive IO stuff - MySQL, etc) if you have enough RAM to feed it.
