> To be fair, Apple’s relatively new APFS file system is designed to speed up file file copies using a technology Apple calls Instant Cloning. But a win is a win.

Um, no.

While snapshots on ZFS or APFS are wonderful, they don’t help me when I am modifying large files, or compiling a big project.

So I don’t know what to take away from this article.


I don't understand how they did not get the first place on any of "real-world" benchmarks, if they have the best CPU and I/O?


Other computers have them available for years?


Eventually, the entire Apple laptop will be made of Samsung hardware.


Big marketing win for apple. The speed increase is just a matter of perception.


give me at least 2x in a raid0
