Yep, mine runs fine with ext4 & barriers.

Manually trimming right now and it slows down a bit after a few weeks, manual trim gets it back to instant response and at it's slowest it's still faster than my HDD ever was. Netbooting frontends from SSD is also extremely fast and doesn't seem to impact simultaneous backend performance.

I'm not running tmpfs for /tmp, will try that when I'm back from my business trip.
