New VFS Cache - Cleared after re-mount

[guizadas (Guilherme Mello)]

Hi

I've been using the new VFS Cache (Full) for a while now and it works great - thanks for all your work.

The only question I had is that when I unmount and then remount, the cache appears to be cleared. Is this as intended? If so, is there a flag to keep the old cache so that rclone will read the file from there instead of re-downloading the file?

Let me know if this is not intended behaviour and I will post a full log and further details.

Thanks!

Not sure what cleared means. Best to share the full template and a log as that would help.

The cache shouldn't be cleared unless things have expired. Note that the default expiry is quite short

  --vfs-cache-max-age duration             Max age of objects in the cache. (default 1h0m0s)

If you run with -vv you'll see stuff being expired.
