Definitely, writing the block once when full is way better than writing it 10 times. Shouldn't that be filesystem's duty to handle that correctly, given that it was configured correctly and thus knows about the small write limitations?

Oh my, that means it's likely to be multiplying the wear applied to any flash memory. I will be more careful with wget and slow downloads on my SSD then. I wonder why "eatmydata" didn't work. I am really curious what the rationale behind the fflush was. Perhaps it should be reconsidered with all the flash media around. gstream
