The problem isn't that /tmp is tmpfs, the problem is that it's being
mounted by /etc/rc.d/tmp as a 20MB filesystem because tmpsize="20m" is
the default.  You could set tmpsize to some bigger value in rc.conf, or
you can add an explicit mount for /tmp in fstab so that you get the
full (47G on your system) capacity that's available:

 tmpfs /tmp tmpfs rw 0 0
