[tahoe-dev] git-annex & tahoe

[til]

hey greg,

yeah you are right, i used osxfuse & the respective sshfs.

the thing is that once i mount a tahoe volume, which i do like this:
mkdir /Volumes/tahoe-test
sshfs -p 8022 username at 127.0.0.1:8022 /Volumes/tahoe-test -oauto_cache,reconnect,volname=volumename

The whole finder gets quite unresponsive. i would understand if just accessing the tahoe volume would cause some delays, but i dont understand why the whole Gui is affected.

No idea if this is a bug in osxfuse or if i am doing something wrong, but it makes this approach kind of unusable for me.
ciao,t.

[digression:
Do you really mean macfuse?  That's no longer being maintained:
  https://code.google.com/p/macfuse/
I have seen
  http://osxfuse.github.io/
  http://fuse4x.github.io/ (competing fork, now merged into osxfuse, yay)
and maybe this is the same thing too:
  http://sourceforge.net/projects/fuse-for-macosx/
]


Can you explain what you mean by "slow"?  Are operations with
sshfs/sftp/tahoe slower than using the tahoe CLI?
(I have found tahoe  to be slow enough that I'd only want to use it for
backups.)
