Hello Daniel, hi Jens,

In the ssd-test sample config:
https://sources.debian.net/src/fio/2.1.11-2/examples/ssd-test.fio/
The test size is 1GB, this line:
size=1g
There are SSDs that have 1g caches and this leads to unhelpful results.
One user I discussed this with had to use a 10g test file to get
consistent and meaningful results.
Maybe bump the example to 10g or add a comment in front of that line.
As the examples are taken from the upstream tarball, I suggest taking this
upstream. I put upstream in Cc, Jens, what do you think about this?
Sure, that sounds fine to me. 1G is tiny by todays standards, 10G would
be a lot more reasonable. I'll commit that change.
