Linode SSD Beta
This sounds pretty cool! What sorts of considerations does one make when you are deciding between more RAM or SSDs?<p><i>Random IO is processed first through the SSDs (the thing that they are really good at) while sequential IO short-cuts to the hard drives - which is pretty slick.</i><p>I'm curious, what do you use to develop something like that? Is it build on top of something? Built into the kernel? I wouldn't even know where to begin...
