It actually was a net decrease in performance! The reason is that first writes would saturate the cache SSD. Then the octane driver software must manually flush the cache to the main SSD.
What happened was that the laptop CPU actually heated up faster doing this, and reached throttle temps sooner.
I disabled the optane function and the performance increased to something typical.
