Hi, everybody!
I'm giving some thought to putting an SSD in my desktop machine.
I've had good experience with SSD, no problems, and as others have
noted it's a dramatic felt-speed-up because of not waiting on disk
access.
"Snappy" is the way I describe it.
I did make two changes, in Debian but I expect it's cross-distro, I
set up a ramdisk for /tmp and turned "swappiness" to 0 in order to
minimize swap access.
in /etc/fstab:
tmpfs /tmp tmpfs defaults,noatime,nosuid,nodev,noexec,mode=1777 0 0
in /etc/sysctl.d/local-settings.conf:
vm.swappiness = 0
Other than that I've done nothing special, and I've had no problems at all.
Curt-
