Insane buffering lately?

i don't use mergerfs... use unionfs...

but i can confirm problems with speeds from hetzner helsinki...

spent a week trying to get answers/fix them.... ended up just moving to a german server in the end....

i always read about peering problems to the u.s..... but ive never had any at all even to the west coast i get iperfs of 22-23 MiB/s a sec solid and steady.... way more than even 4k needs....

i will say that i do get crap results before i make two tweaks.... i update the kernel, change congestion to BBR and increase a bunch of the tcp settings.... YMMV.... but it almost doubles my throughput.... and again ive never had any peering issues since i made those tweaks a couple years ago... and never seen the need for cloudflare etc...

helsinki seemed like a lost cause though... even after the tweaks i'd see drops to like 300k for an hour
: ) : (

perfect again in falkenstein now though....

Also back at Falkenstein, works so far so good

unionfs doesn't support hard links nor policies and not quite a good fit for me. If you require those, mergerfs fits better than unionfs.

yea... i was reading up on here.. why you used it....
my setup is pretty basic... i don't need to use things like sonar etc or make any hard links : )

i tried leaving fuse out altogether this build/machine... but dmn if i could get plex or emby to see the mount..... gave up and went with what worked great before (scan times and bandwidth used during scans are my only complaint)
