Wear leveling in SSDs considered harmful

  FTLSim-WL : FTLSim extension with a serious of wear leveling, garbage collection, block allocation policies.

I'm not super impressed with this paper. It doesn't appear that they've done any tests on actual SSDs. From the paper:

> we evaluate three representative WL techniques [3, 6, 7] that have been compared against a wide variety of other WLs

and

> We extend FTLSim [9]1 for our experiments.

So they picked some algorithms and implemented them in a simulator, with no validation that this is what actual SSDs do?

Also, the code repo that they list consists of nothing but a readme file:
