I wouldn't use anything else but an SSD for the root filesystem! They're great. Don't stress about swap. I'm running swap on SSD for a number of my personal systems. Looking at a small server with 536 days of power-on runtime on the SSD, it still hasn't used any of the reserved-for-failures blocks, and the wear levelling count is only up to 8. (The wear levelling should get up to several thousand before the drive is approaching end of life) _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list [email protected] http://lists.luv.asn.au/listinfo/luv-main
