Hi all
The specs are in my signature.
So I have a pool for storage mainly.
Also one (single disk) with a VM of ubuntu server with this installed: https://lancache.net/
My games are 'backup up' on the main storage as an ISCSI drive.
A Windows 10 VM updates my games (mainly steam) overnight.
The appropriate DNS changes have been made so all game updates are through the lancache VM.
The 240GB SSD is 98% full with about 5GB free space.
It will have a maximum of about 4MB/s writes to it overnight.
I am mainly concerned about read speeds being optimum.
I want to use as much as much of the drive as practical.
Redundancy is not an issue. It is a cache drive only. Sync is turned off and no compression.
Is there some sort of 'defrag' zfs equivalent that can be used on a regular basis.
The lancache software typically reads out in 1MB chunks to whoever (me) is updating their games , ideally as quickly as practical.
Will having 5GB free space be an issue in this situation?
Thanks
