In my case, when I first discovered this issue my OS was on NVMe with my home being on an LBM pool (two 4TB HDDs + one 1TB NVMe cache) forming an 8TB volume. Plasma is the only thing on my system that struggles with that configuration, and I don't store anything else in /home that would benefit from an SSD more than it would the extra space. 8 TB worth of SSDs is still prohibitively expensive for me, and not worth it for what I store on them. Even with gaming, the little extra load time doesn't bother me. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
