So compress=zstd flag for mount option is gonna do the trick and no extra option for transport compression like transport=true or anything?
Not sure what the latter one does
C0rn3j 2022-07-20 14:00:03
Keep in mind that compress-force exists because the way btrfs checks if to compress or not can be flawed

I’m jsut thinking of games like Guild Wars 1 where all the data is in one big .dat file
Only 4gb max though, it’s not that bad

Yes

SarisanSe 2022-07-20 15:45:43
Yes
Then OK, otherwise swap on HDD is quite painful to use

Bullshit
ufoludek 2022-07-20 16:30:43
Stop spreading this outdated and stupid info around, today’s ssd are so resistant there is no point in putting swap anywhere else

In fact, there are special advantages in having swap on SSD
PuzzDio 2022-07-20 16:31:38
SSD’s already have systems designed to increase lifespan by distributing cell load, i have SSD’s years old and theyre fine
ufoludek 2022-07-20 16:31:48
My 7 years old ssd is still going strong and has tons of life left. And I used this ssd as main disk, hdd cache, disk for virtual machines and God only knows what else
ufoludek 2022-07-20 16:32:12
Yet it’s still perfectly healthy. So please stop putting your swap on slow HDDs instead of SSDs

I’ve heard SSDs die in 2-3 years

I’m sure this ssd has lots of years to come

The TBW is few hundreds TB, I have only 17TB written on it in total
