To close this thread.
I gave up on the drive after it showed abysmal benchmarking results in
windows too.
I owed everyone an update, which I just finished typing:
http://marc.merlins.org/perso/linux/post_2012-08-15_The-tale-of-SSDs_-Crucial-C300-early-Death_-Samsung-830-extreme-random-IO-slowness_-and-settling-with-OCZ-Vertex-4.html
I'm not sure how I could have gotten 2 bad drives from Samsung in 2
different shipments, so I'm afraid the entire line may be bad. At least, it
was for me after extensive benchmarking, and even using their own windows
benchmarking tool.
In the end, I got a OCZ Vertex 4 and it's superfast as per the benchmarks I
posted in the link above.
What is interesting is that ext4 is somewhat faster than btrfs in the tests
I posted above, but not in ways that should be truly worrisome.
I'm still happy to have COW and snapshots, even if that costs me
performance.
Sorry for spamming the list with what apparently just ended up a crappy
drive (well, 2 since I got two just to make sure) from a vendor who
shouldn't have been selling crappy SSDs.
