be better than trim-as-you-go.
Advancements in generic test infrastructures since last year.
Could talk a bit about the advancements in proper alignment detection&
setup for storage& filesystems but that's not a very big topic.
Jan's suggestion of some writeback sanity sounds good to me too.
Why just sanity. We can also talk about the new cache writeback techniques
FS metadata specific as well as application dirty pages to improve
performance
of large sequential write NFS workloads.
Thanks,

I think that all of the above are great topics for this time around.
Specifically, the alignment work has been interesting in that we have
tried to get not just the kernel bits but the entire stack to work
properly.
Both this and the discard work should still be quite topical if we can
get the various storage vendors to evaluate our current upstream bits in
time :-)
