Out of curiosity I took a look in the journal to see if there was any logging about trimming my NVMe drive.Something is clearly happening, but the numbers look strange to me. For example the same number of bytes have been trimmed on /boot/firmware for the last 4 weekly runs. If nothing has changed on that partition in a week I would have expected to see zero bytes being trimmed.
Is there something wrong or have I misunderstood trimming and/or the log entries ?
