If there are some incompetently implemented SSD's out there which do a flash erase of the entire SSD upon receiving a TRIM command (new flash! Part of the whole *point* of a TRIM was to increase write endurance by eliminating the need to copy blocks that really weren't in use any more by the OS when the SSD is doing a GC copy/compaction of a partially written flash sector), all I can do is do a sigh, and wish that T13 had defined a "comptently implemented SSD bit" --- not that Indilinix would admit if it they were incompetent. :-/
The Sandforce drives seem even slower for mke2fs than the Indilinx. And both types are faster than the Intel units for desktop use. At least they optimized for the important commands. :) Cheers -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
