After checking test blog posts from different authors, I know EXT4 is the fastest for 3y already in 2011. However, there are also other settings that make an SSD faster which I found in: http://www.howtogeek.com/62761/how-to-tweak-your-ssd-in-ubuntu-for-better-performance/
sudo gedit /etc/fstab
- Add to
/
partitionnoatime,nodiratime
- If kernel is >2.6.33, also add discard
tmpfs /tmp tmpfs defaults,noatime,mode=1777 0 0
And https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MagicFab/SSDchecklist
sudo gedit /etc/fstab
Add to
/
partitionnoatime
, and that's itAnd the
data=writeback
mounting option _if you formatted the disk without journaling. Otherwise add data=ordered which s[h]ould be a good compromise between full journaling and none at all.tmpfs /tmp tmpfs nodev,nosuid,noexec,mode=1777 0 0
Why only noatime
?
How can I know if the disk is without journaling from installation?
What's faster? No Journaling or opposite? And diff no journaling data=writeback
or journaled data=ordered
?
Why tmpfs /tmp
differs in both articles, how do they differ, and which is better and why?
All of this is about SSD, but can I use the same settings in HDD? I want to find an answer for HDD and SSD as I've made one-time scripts for setting it up in my https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kangarooo/AfterCleanInstallation.
