Hey Mat, I'm thinking an SSD-performance-effect would depend on which implementation of ltsp you are thinking: thin client, localapps, fat client. However, I can't answer but this would help frame the problem. I would guess the smallest benefit would be with fat clients. Would be interesting hearing some test results…
