F2FS and Kernel 4.16 file system improvements

Posted on January 31, 2018 by Paul Sutton

F2FS Sees An Assortment Of File-System Improvements With Linux 4.16

This was posted to Diaspora earlier.   Anything that improves the filesystem is welcome, it does however look like the improvements are mainly for flash based devices such as SSDs.

http://www.tuxmachines.org/node/108636

Recent discussion on IRC suggests that F2FS also works on the Pi,  but is early days yet,.

Any file system hackers out there.
