LXer: JFS File-System Can Now Handle SSD TRIM Discard
Published at LXer:
Yet another change for the Linux 3.7 kernel is that the JFS file-system now supports the SSD TRIM command. The JFS file-system now supports TRIM for informing solid-state disks about blocks of data that are no longer in use and can be wiped internally. There's already been Linux support for the TRIM command on SSDs with EXT4, Btrfs, FAT, XFS, and other file-systems, but now it's come to the aging JFS file-system. Read More... |
That's great news, because JFS is one of the fastest filesystems on SSDs.
Although I am boycotting phoronix, this older benchmark is reasonably good: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?pag...38_large&num=1 Of course, nobody cares, everyone will use ext4, because it's the default. |
