It seems I'll have ot do some more tests and dive a little into bcache sources when I have time. Meanwhile, could you please explain what cache_bypass_misses and cache_bypass_hits mean?

I'm using SANDISK Extreme Pro SDSSDXPM2-500G-G25 M.2 NVMe drive and it's quite common desktop drive, just use native 4K format (nvme-cli) LBA Format 0 : Metadata Size: 0 bytes - Data Size: 512 bytes - Relative Performance: 0x2 Good LBA Format 1 : Metadata Size: 0 bytes - Data Size: 4096 bytes - Relative Performance: 0x1 Better (in use) I'm not sure, but I think other drives support this too. ---- Best regards, Sergey.
