The EXT4 file-system tests on the four different Linux distribution configurations aren't too exciting given that the EXT4 file-system hasn't seen too many major changes in recent kernel releases that would impact a single SSD in a standard configuration.

The only main item to point at from the disk results would be Ubuntu 14.04's slightly lower performance in PostMark compared to upstream Debian. Worth noting is that Ubuntu uses the deadline I/O scheduler for this install while Debian was using CFQ.
