Man this 10.10.2 is working really well. iCloud Keychain doesn't reset after restart, TextEdit stopped crashing, launching seems faster in general, (i.e. things feel snappier comment)...
That is one way of saying it, by naming Apple and not OS X. OS X fully supports TRIM and SSD drives, but Apple intentionally disables TRIM support for third-party SSD drives. Which is why Trim Enabler is needed when you have a third-party SSD installed. Would be nice if Apple just relented and allowed TRIM support for any SSD drive, since Macs prior to 2012 could easy be upgraded with a third-party drive, much larger than Apple's tiny offerings in those models. Back in the day, Apple intentionally disabled iDVD support for any external and non-Apple DVD-RW drive, then finally relented and allowed iDVD to burn DVD-Video on any DVD-RW drive.
It doesn't look like enabling TRIM would give me much value and given the potential issues you mention (in addition to the ones listed in the wiki-page Solips pointed me to), I don't think I'll bother
TRIM should be enabled when using SSD drives. The quick reason "Trimming enables the SSD to handle garbage collection overhead, which would otherwise significantly slow down future write operations to the involved blocks, in advance."
Yeah still having slow wifi connection issues with my late '13 MBA meanwhile in the same room I can stream Netflix and my iPhone is on my wifi with no problems what so ever. Frustrating.
People who enable TRIM need to remember that they need to check compatibility with SSDs they pop in - Most SSDs come with garbage collection techniques which are pretty good these days and TRIM can cause conflict on some drives because of that.
Not that it isn't beneficial, it totally is, just as long as it doesn't degrade your SSD!
True, but that typically applies to some SSD drives that were released in 2014 and later, not earlier model SSD drives. So one would have to do research on the drive they purchased to see if it has the components capable of handling their own garbage collection techniques.
We just bought an iMac that had a 10.10.1 (two days ago) which worked fine. The moment I updated to 10.10.2 I faced wi-fi problems (connectivity). Finally I had to reinstall 10.10.1 after which wifi and internet is back working. This sounds exactly the opposite to what 10.10.2 is supposed to do.... any thoughts?

Trim Enabler is a 3rd-party app for enabling Trim on 3rd-party SSDs since Apple only supports TRIM on the SSDs they include with their machines.

Any luck? Still having BT issues on my 2013 MBP.
Not only do my BT keyboard and mouse disconnect and reconnect randomly, BT will just turn itself off.
