People should understand that UBIFS is designed for embedded systems. It
is good for low-price devices where you have just bare flash which is
cheap. SSD is a completely different area and irrelevant to UBIFS. The
same applies for LogFS and YAFFS IMO. Talking about using these FS-es on
SSD is just silly (again IMHO).
