The major unknown issue with trim is how well the drives schedules/defers the trim operation so that it does not interfer with other I/Os. Also, it would be really bad if the drive applied trim after the block had been re-allocated for a write. It would also be really bad if the drive loses unrelated data if there is a power fail during trim. If writes get blocked by a pending trim, then trim would not help very much.
