Intel already has Clear Linux actually. I don't think there's really a ton you can do at an OS level. ZFS L2ARC, system swap, etc, but a lot of the benefits would come from tuning DB configs/etc to suit the new hardware. If it's a fast SSD... ok are you the DBA? Similarly, PDIMM is really best utilized by a ground-up rethink of applications operating in a persistent context (think of like, javacard multicore 1TB or whatever). If you treat it as slow RAM it's gonna be slow RAM. The point would be building systems and applications that exploit the "writing the memory is now writing the disk" idiom. The ideal ecosytem for PDIMM isn't Linux at all, it's JVM, or LISP/Haskell. Or android I suppose lol.
