i will try but there are no errors
its just slow to start media on plex

For using the VFS only, I don't know if maybe enabling the chunked downloads and using a fairly small initial chunk start-size would help. Animosity can probably answer this best since he actually uses this solution I believe.

I had to use cache backend to get streaming to work acceptably for me personally, but that may be due to some windows specific quirk - so my own experience here may not translate to your situation.

[Edited to avoid confusion]

The log would be the most helpful part.
