    I’ve never used fractional scaling but it’s obvious you don’t understand that it’s not about resolution but about screen size+resolution. On small displays with big resulutions like modern laptops a fractional scaling is absolutely essential unless you want to squint your eyes even with 20/20 vision.















  • No it did not get warm at all because it was barely doing anything. But so that I’m fair I’ve borrowed different USB 3.2 Gen1 drive and tested also with my Fedora Laptop.

    single 4.4GB video file

    • Zen1 based Windows PC - 2min 10s (could unmount right after progress finished)
    • Zen4 based Fedora41 laptop - 3min 1s (progress finished within 1min but then took 2min to unmount)
    • Zen3 based Fedora41 PC - 5min 16s (progress finished within 20s but took almost 5min to unmount)


  • As I’ve already mentioned, sync does absolutely nothing. The copy took so long that the sync command exited 4 times while the files were still transfering and were nowhere near finishing. Regarding the watch -d grep -e Dirty: -e Writeback: /proc/meminfo command, I did not mention it in this thread but I did try it and yes, there was some almost 900k kB of data in the “Dirty” buffer that went up and down constantly even after I’ve disabled the caching.
