1 rsync is doing bunch of 4k ramdon IO when updateing portage tree,
2 that will kill SSDs with much higher Write Amplification Factror.

4
5 I have a 2year old SSDs that have reported Write Amplification Factor
6 of 26. I think the only reason is that I put portage tree on this SSD
7 to speed it up.

9 what is the suggest way to reduce Write Amplification of a portage sync ?
