It is not just a question of battery! Too much writing accesses also harms the life-time of HDs or SSDs! I also asked before (on the bugs) about more informations to the "journaled storage" ... If it is - like I think - a lot of small files, I don't like it! A lot of small files wast a lot of un-used bytes on the storage and brings a big fragmentation to it! This significantly slows down a system! _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
