What is the benefit of running fstrim manually over mounting with
discard?
discard seems to slow down the fs by trimming all the time.
I only report what I read. No tests done so far.
Shouldn't discard be set to make TRIM work anyway, even

You asked the drive firmware for a favour - to please check if anything
can be discarded and if so to discard it.

The firmware checked that it *could* discard X bytes and then figured
well, maybe it will, maybe it
As mentioned in the systemd-posting I migrated back to an SSD today (on
my main rig, the thinkpad uses an SSD happily for a long time now).
A feature in a local magazine updated my knowledge of how to make use of
the TRIM-command.
It told me not to use the mount-option discard anymore, but run

Yes, you misunderstand how fstrim works. It's not up to you to say what
it does exactly, it's up to the drive firmware and possibly the kernel.
It's actually fully described in the man page right there in the part
for option -v :-)
So it only
