Hi,

On a desktop equipped with an ssd with one 100GB virtual image used 
frequently, what do you recommend?
1) nothing special, it is all fine as long as you have a recent kernel 
(which I do)
2) Disabling copy-on-write for just the VM image directory.
3) autodefrag as a mount option.
4) something else.

I don't think this usecase is well documented therefore I asked this 
question.

Xavier
