hi all, I would like to know what are the ssd specific optimisations in btrfs . I read from the archives that "mount -o ssd option, which clusters file data writes together regardless of the directory the files belong to. There are a number of other performance tweaks for SSD, aimed at clustering metadata and data writes to better take advantage of the hardware" Also I read that there are some allocator changes specific to ssd. I would like to know what these changes are. I tried to see the v 0.17 code to understand what ssd specific changes are. I saw that the SSD option was used in two places in function find_free_extent and in function btrfs_defrag_leaves. I couldn't gather much information from the code. So can somebody help me understand the optimisations and changes in btrfs. are any documentation or reading material available?
