@WarrantyVoider, you once gave me the following help/explanation:
"One thing that might cause a slowdown is when most memory cells on the card have been used, each write operation now incurs an extra erasure or a copy+erasure step (as SD cards don't support trim commands, as far as I know). Browsers and social networking apps read/write a lot of small files, so the impact on their performance is greater. If this is the case, you can try to erase all memory cells with SD Formatter. If you know how, you can also use F2FS instead of Ext4. F2FS should be more efficient on an SD than ext4. Another tip is to mount the partition with the noatime flag. Also, make sure your partitions aren't misaligned."
Does this:
"each write operation now incurs an extra erasure or a copy+erasure step"
not happen when using f2fs?
I've tried to Google a more in depth description regarding f2fs way of handling things compared to for example ext4, but it's hard to find...
I'm guessing that f2fs doesn't wear down the sdcard as much as ext4, but I might be wrong?
