I didn't follow this thread, but IIRC I read something about "not to write to often to SSD"? So you take care regarding to noatime etc.? FWIW "Reliability and lifetime SSDs have no moving parts to fail mechanically. Each block of a flash-based SSD can only be erased (and therefore written) a limited number of times before it fails. The controllers manage this limitation so that drives can last for many years under normal use.[79][80][81][82][83] SSDs based on DRAM do not have a limited number of writes. Firmware bugs are currently a common cause for data loss.[citation needed] HDDs have moving parts, and are subject to potential mechanical failures from the resulting wear and tear." - Wiki You'll make your Linux less reliable by handling log files in a dirty way, to get a longer lifetime for a SSD drive? Nobody really knows how long they'll last, but it's said they have a longer lifetime than mechanical drives? Perhaps not a good idea.
