I would say, show me the data (and with a file system on top). Log-structured file systems don’t overwrite data, so the randomness of writes becomes moot, as it converts writes to become all sequential.
- wtallis 4y agoI wouldn't expect using a log-structured filesystem to help much, because the SSD is already running its own log-structured filesystem internally. A log-structured filesystem doesn't magically turn a random write workload into sequential writes; it incurs more or less the same overhead that the SSD's FTL does doing read-modify-write cycles causing write amplification.
