    Wow, looks like it was a sensible option to stick with EXT4 this build. Neat that there’s some competition in this space, but ol’ reliable just keeps on trucking.

      If all you care about is speed you could do even better than EXT4. But I wouldn’t recommend it because you should care about more than speed.

    I don’t know anything about F2FS. I was surprised to see it do so well.

    I imagine for home lab stuff, filesystems usually won’t be the bottleneck? Is there any case where a home user might benefit from a faster filesystem?

      It’s designed to take advantage of the way eMMC flash works, so it’s very popular on Android phones.
