Write operation using FileX and LevelX on NOR flash size is getting very slow?
Hi,
I am using W25Q64JV NOR flash of size 8MB on ST STM32U5A9ZJ board. On the flash I have created a file system using LevelX and FileX. I have enabled fault tolerant option in FileX. I am writing 128bytes of data every 500ms to a file. Initially the write operation is taking around 70-80 ms, however after some time (after around 3000 writes) the write operation occasionally is taking around 3-4 seconds. This is after every few writes. Following is the fx_media_format parameters I have used -
status = fx_media_format(&flashMedia, fx_stm32_levelx_nor_driver, reinterpret_cast<VOID *>(LX_NOR_OSPI_DRIVER_ID), reinterpret_cast<UCHAR *>(mediaMemory), sizeof(mediaMemory), "FLASH_DISK",
1, // Number of FATs
32, // Directory Entries
0, // Hidden sectors
(0x800000 - 0x10000)/ 0x10000,// Total sectors minus one
512, // Sector size
8, // Sectors per cluster
1, // Heads
1); // Sectors per track
Could you please let me know what I might to improve the performance? My goal is to complete the write operation of 128 bytes under 100ms in any circumstances. Thanks in advance.
