I'm not talking about expanding lifetime. But lower write performance when you have less 10% space available.

Overprovisioning SSD's isn't a major requirement anymore especially if you use a software RAID solution where you can utilize trim (Hence why I noted Ubuntu + Software RAID as opposed to say an LSI RAID card).
Overprovisioning used to add a good amount of life to an SSD, but with all the new garbage collection solutions built into the SSD's as well as the ability to use TRIM with RAID its much less of an issue.
