Hum, flash has a *limited* ammount of possible write for each cell, for low cost, it's between 10K-50K and for heavy duty, industrial grade, bla bla bla, it's around 2M, so, hum, just imagine you have a solid state flash disk, and your swap on it. One day, your box begins swapping hard, and some time later, half of your drive can't be written to again... -- Mathieu Arnold _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hardware To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
