I'm using (mostly) OpenMandriva Lx 3.0. My understanding is that we get a lot of packages from Fedora. Also that tuned is a Red Hat/Fedora creation. OM Lx 3 comes with tuned enabled by default with 'balanced' profile. I'm a user not a developer. My SSD is:
Code:
# smartctl -i /dev/sdc
smartctl 6.5 2016-05-07 r4318 [x86_64-linux-4.9.0-desktop-4omv] (OpenMandriva Lx 6.5-1)

My question is that I notice with tuned enabled the 'timed read' numbers from 'hdparm -Tt /dev/sdc' start around 485 MB/sec but drop (in less than an hour) to as low as 30-35 MB/sec. Any ideas why this would be? Disabling tuned.service turning off computer and turning back on corrects this. Should I just disable tuned.service or is there a way to use tuned with this Curcial SSD to good effect? I have tried a number of different profiles and so far all do this. I tried in addition to balanced, desktop, realtime, and throughput-performance. FWIW: Here's '/etc/fstab':
Code:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a device; this may
# be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices that works even if
# disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>

I guessed about where to post this so hope I did OK there. If there is anywhere else I could ask about this it would be good to know. Like IRC, or somewhere at Red Hat? Or developer mailing list?
Will provide any info required or do tests ect.
