I stand corrected. I have done some benchmarks with just two Samsung SSDs (zpool with two disks, no mirroring) and indeed I get better performance with 4 KB blocks.

I did my original tests with 12 disks and some other bottleneck was hiding the performance difference.

In both cases, anyway, Trim was working unless the system lies.





Thanks!
