It’s on a Samsung 960 Evo M.2 SSD.
Task manager shows it’s utilization almost always between 0% & < 10%, low latency though.
Removed the peak that I saw, can’t possibly watch it all the time.

EDITZ:
Something I didn’t post earlier, was my 7 threads in parallel compilation result…
Back with the balanced power plan at stock settings.
7t :1502.76 seconds (Local executor: 1391.11 seconds)
8t :1444.86 seconds (Local executor: 1335.17 seconds)
12t :1403.50 seconds (Local executor: 1290.93 seconds)
14t :1399.52 seconds (Local executor: 1287.20 seconds)
16t :1398.59 seconds (Local executor: 1289.72 seconds)

Took me a while but I did a test on mine and friend’s PC.

UE4.15.1 Development Editor

i7 6700k@4.5GHz with 16Gb 2666MHz
21min 5sec

i7 5820k@4.0GHz with 16GB 2666MHz
18min 30sec

both on Samsung m.2 with 2.8GBs reads.

From perspective of a programmer I am bit disappointed with R7. It seems 5820k beats it for same price (and now you can get even faster 6800k) in compilation, even normal i7 gets same time.
But for people with more usage for R7 power like lightmass or other heavy mt it seems like a good choice.
