Keep in mind, the HDD was using ext2 and the SSD was using reiserfs. Synchronous writes on ext2 are faster than all journaling filesystems.

- jbellis 13y agoNot three orders of magnitude faster, which is the difference between hdd and ssd random writes.
- hyc_symas 13y agoAll of the source code is available on that page, you're welcome to rerun it on your own hardware configuration.
- ithkuil 13y agoThree orders of magnitude faster would mean 1000x faster. You probably meant 3 times faster.
- jbellis 13y agoSSDs really are 1000x faster at random writes (~200,000 iops vs ~200 iops)
