I'm not sure I'm following this...
But I'm rather curious.
Are you saying that the required journal bandwidth versus OSD write
bandwidth has an approx 1:200 ratio??

Note that I took it the other way.
Given the Intel specs
 - What sustained bandwidth is allowed to have the device last its lifetime.
 - How much more usage would a 3710 give in regards to a 3520 SSD per
   dollar spent.
