I have no idea, that's why I was hoping someone would test it for me :)
Actually, I just looked at my rpm -qa and yum list available. Where did
laptop mode go? (I did grep -i laptop)
If fedora already does remount with noatime by default on laptops in
some fashion, that would seem to be a pretty strong argument in favor of
making it default all the time, given any significant performance
benefit. (and the fact that I haven't heard any convincing use-case of
it that doesn't have a better workaround).
