Yeah, the man page doesn't really help me out.
For instance, why would unused blocks not be discarded? And what does "discarded" even mean in this context? But it does recommend against using it for SSDs so I think I'll skip it.
"this is useful for solid-state drives"
Where is it not recommended?
Or did I just miss something?
I guess it was recommending against frequent runs.
