Thanks a bunch for the benches chispy - you just saved me and others a ton of time doing all of that.

Looks like if we want to split hairs, the 4k QD1 reads took a very slight hit. PCMark application loading bench confirms that as well...

Wish Samsung could be a little more descript in what they've done to the fw. If helping dirty-state write is the only tweak, so be it.

Thanks again.
