New question #207704 on AC100_enablement: https://answers.launchpad.net/ac100/+question/207704
>From what one can learn about tuning systems for SSDs (e.g., [1]) (and the >flash memory drive in Toshiba AC100 is similar), there is a recommendation to >turn off the on-disk cache in the web browser: disabling these frequent small writes would * contribute to saving the drive from wearing out (which is important for the small-sized, built-in drive) * and also speed up the system (writes are slow, perhaps even choking the system for a while -- http://productforums.google.com/d/msg/chrome/rkXAt47LoEI/a2peYQcegGgJ ) [1]: http://blog.superuser.com/2011/05/10/maximizing-the-lifetime-of-your-ssd/ Now I suggest to collect information on how to disable the on-disk chache in all the browsers in Ubuntu (firefox, chromium, epiphany, midori, rekonq, etc.), how to save this setting, and how to make it system-wide (so that it is valid for all the users). (Perhaps, one answer per one browser.) -- You received this question notification because you are a member of AC100 Team, which is an answer contact for AC100_enablement. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ac100 Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ac100 More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
