recommendations for SSD drive as first disk for fedora 18?

  after a while living with ubuntu, i'm moving back to fedora as of
F18, and would like some advice.  i have an ASUS G74S with twin 750G
drives, but i want to replace the boot drive with an SSD, and install
F18 in such a way as to maximize the benefit of the SSD for booting
and (mostly) R/O storage.

  a lot of my time will be spent doing lengthy compiles (kernel,
openembedded), so in addition to system content on the SSD, i'll want
to keep all of my source there as well, while the build directories
will be on the regular drive.

  is there a recommendation for installing F18 in terms of separating
what's appropriate for the SSD versus what isn't?  most of that is
fairly obvious, just wondering if anyone wrote up something about
their experience doing just that and how well it worked for them.
thanks.
