With an SSD it won't really matter. You won't notice any difference between UFS and ZFS. But regardless: compilation speed is dependent on the CPU, not your disk; and by default Poudriere performs some of its work in RAM, which is already faster than an SSD. I wouldn't expect to see a huge speed increase from Poudriere after moving its directories to an SSD. If Poudriere is configured to extract distfiles and prepare ports on disk rather than in RAM, that would speed up, but that's probably about it. Of course you could always move the entire system to the SSD, since it would have plenty of spare room. While Poudriere wouldn't run drastically faster, everything else would, and you could use the extra space on the HDD for any data you might want to store. -- :: Brandon J.
