Therefore I have generally avoided it as I figured that I'd get better performance by allowing that RAM to wo...

This week + some tests so I guess couple of weeks sounds reasonable. Did not get the idea about LSFS size increase as LSFS with enabled dedupe and snapshot offloads keeps LESS flash used. The note about LSFS size increase is in reference to the first post whereby it is recommended to only assign 15...

It's there for LSFS and TRIM / UNMAP is already working for FLAT so we'll have an update for that soon. Are you able to say when approximately? I may be deploying an all flash solution and in that case flat makes sense as I don't need the benefits of LSFS to speed up the array and can't stretch the...
