As far as I can tell fstrim -v always outputs 0 > bytes trimmed. (Note that I'm also a btrfs user.) I've been using the systemd timer that comes with util-linux upstream without modification, which runs fstrim weekly. That seems to work well, but to be quite honest, I wouldn't know how to tell. Sometimes I wasn't even sure it ran, so I would run it manually, and it always finished nigh-instantaneously. Before that, I used the discard mount option, but apparently that's only a good idea with high-end SSDs (not that I noticed much of a difference in everyday usage). -- Marc Joliet -- "People who think they know everything really annoy those of us who know we don't" - Bjarne Stroustrup
