A comment on Ask HN: Which Linux filesystem “produce” less wear and tear on SSD NAND?.
While there are big gaps of write amplification for metadata writes, on macro benchmarks all filesystems have similar results.
btrfs has the biggest WAF, but you can enable compression globally and I suspect that difference alone will make it come ahead of others.
