Should include:
1. Dual Ext4 + external 32GB journal X4 pcie SSD (the prior winner of benchmark surveys)
2. Bare F2FS after a trim and SSD vendor software cache flush operation (it should be slower, but knowing how much slower on identical hardware could be interesting.)
3. DRBD across a 48U 100Gbps host rack (single X4 pcie data drive per host, OS on primary)
4. CephFS across a 48U 100Gbps host rack (single X4 pcie data drive per host, OS on primary)
Best regards =3
6. modern nvme drive, preferrably pcie gen5 that can push >14GiB/sec
Also
5. a ZFS dRaid configuration. There could be very different characteristics there with it using slabs.
Speaking of slabs, MS ReFS of you feel adventurous!
