That seems to be less of an issue than feared. I've been using USB flash
swap on a Pi2 for the last two years, working much harder than a typical
desktop machine, though by no means 100% 24-7. So far, no problems at all.
It may yet develop problems, but I'm starting to suspect obsolescence will
ends its usefulness first.
