Nice numbers, thanks.
Is Elephant even available, though? Even if someone has a low end chip but needs a high IO rate and thus must turn off Elephant, why kill off the feature? That's what's so odd. They admit it's critical, then go on to completely delete it, no mention of why (until this one line explanation now). For many users, the perf impact is irrelevant. I rarely do high rate IO (boot and copying movies); even large compiles I doubt are hitting the 100MB/sec level.
At 5cbp, even a low end Atom will get 100-200+MB/sec, right? What low end devices are pushing that on any frequent enough basis to hurt the user?
And, given their weight, they could have forced these requirements into eDrive, and offload it all to the SSD controller.
