That caveat at the end: "With this model, filestore rearrange the tree very frequently : + 40 I/O every 32 objects link/unlink." Indicates how bad the IO patterns will be when modifying the directory structure, and says to me that it's not a useful optimisation at all when you might be creating several thousand files/s on a filesystem. That will end up IO bound, SSD or not.
