With the max speed of vte measured on my computer (as I mentioned above), producing 75 TB of scrollback data takes about half a year. (With the compression, it'll be 1.5-2 years or so). Combine that with the typical load average of your terminals in the long run (including those times when the app isn't even running) hopefully being waaaaay below 1%, I still don't think SSD lifetime is a valid real-life issue.
