Softupdates are a beautful thing for optimizing the drive. If you're
running 4.2, it should already be supported in the kernel. All you
need to do is to read the man page for tunefs to see how to use it.
Tunefs is what you'll need to do to set softupdates on your slices.
Once set, they'll stay set until you turn it off. The settings remain
even after a reboot.
