Unless it's (marginally) free SSD, check your log file parallel write times - your time loss might be in the inter process communication, and there may be no gain (not to mention intermittent slow writes) in SSD.

| We have an app that by nature does a lot of commits. I'd like to move
my log files to Solid State Disks, non-volatile SSD -- so nothing is lost in case of power outage.
|
| Are there any caveats or warnings or experience on the list for me before
I move forward?
