    Is it preferable now to use F2FS on SSDs instead of ext4?

      Rather BTRFS and ZFS optimizations for SSD instead.

      I would rather like to see BTRFS and ZFS optimizations for SSD, including persistand transparent encryption etc.

      I don't see a point of using separate file system just for SSD and one can use SSDs for intent logs and cache for ZFS and that's it.
      (Don't know how BTFS uses SSD for speedups, since I am on ZFS since 2009).

        Is it still developed by Samsung, or they stopped working on it? What happened to the plan to produce the Windows driver?

          I will see some test on phoronix of the fastboot option and maybe some other tuning options against ext4 maybe with journal_checksum,journal_async_commit with improves ext4.

            fastboot option

            Is there any reason NOT to use the fastboot option?

              Commit message says it costs runtime perf.
