Hello, I use a samba share to share a rclone mount with Windows 7. The listing and moving/renaming files can be a little slow sometimes.
I’ve been considering to add those flags and have some questions.
–fast-list
How much memory increase I should expect when using this flag? Can it’s behavior be better explained?
–no-traverse
I assume this will speed up moving/renaming/copying files to it right?
–no-modtime
The docs says this can speed things up a little, but how exactly will this impact file operations with files inside the mount? Will it change how software can interacts with files inside the mount?
–dir-cache-time 30s
To make changes in the webUI reflect faster on it, is it safe to use low times with google drive? Would setting it to 1s cause a too much high API usage/bans etc?
–write-back-cache
How does this impact perfomance? Can it be better explained ?
Most of the time I use this mount only to download files, perform moving/renaming operations. I just want faster listing of files and moving files around.
@ncw Can you explain a little more about the behavior of these flags on rclone mounts? Thanks for the software!
