Comment(by neteler):

 Replying to [comment:14 imincik1]:
 ...
 > 2. What was a great change was moving '.tmp' directory from my mapset
 outside of NFS (by using symlink). v.in.ogr was 8 times faster.
 > So my idea is, is it possible to have some environment variable, which
 could define global alternative directory for temporary files ? This could
 improve situation for all modules which are using temporary files (for
 example v.random is not using).

 Can you please try this variable?

 --> "TMPDIR, TEMP, TMP" (name depends on the operating system)
