emmc vs NVMe real-world performances

[kuleszdl]

Imho, you can get a decent boost in terms of performance and longevity from low-end flash such as eMMC/microSD by just using f2fs instead of ext4. Of course, no comparison to using a NVMe drive with ext4, but it might give you a sufficient boost in order to do your compilation/development stuff on eMMC. Have a look at these benchmarks:

However, depending on the actual OS used, it must be noted that getting it installed using f2fs might not be straight-forward.
