Aha, ssd_spread, looks like it's meant for lower grade SSD's. samuel@eris:~/Downloads/linux$ git log -Sssd_spread fs/btrfs/ commit 451d7585a8bb1b9bec0d676ce3dece1923164e55 Author: Chris Mason <[email protected]> Date: Tue Jun 9 20:28:34 2009 -0400 Btrfs: add mount -o ssd_spread to spread allocations out Some SSDs perform best when reusing block numbers often, while others perform much better when clustering strictly allocates big chunks of unused space. The default mount -o ssd will find rough groupings of blocks where there are a bunch of free blocks that might have some allocated blocks mixed in. mount -o ssd_spread will make sure there are no allocated blocks mixed in. It should perform better on lower end SSDs.
