F2FS is a log-structured filesystem for Linux that has (limited) atomic write capabilities. SQLite is able to use the atomic write capabilities of F2FS to bypass the rollback journal. Anecdotal reports are that an Android phone that is reformatted to use F2FS is noticeably faster.
F2FS make an old tired phone feel like a perky new phone.
