Linux 4.4 SSD Benchmarks On EXT4, F2FS, Btrfs & XFS

Written by Michael Larabel in Linux Storage on 3 December 2015 at 11:40 AM EST. 13 Comments

For those looking toward some fresh comparison numbers of EXT4, F2FS, XFS, and Btrfs on solid-state storage, here you go.

A few days back I carried out some fresh benchmarks of these four most popular mainline Linux file-systems while using the Linux 4.4 development kernel.

Linux 4.4 XFS Btrfs EXT4 F2FS Filesystems

The four file-systems on Linux 4.4 were tested from the SATA 3.0 120GB Samsung 850 SSD.

You can see all of the benchmark results via this OpenBenchmarking.org result file.
