Multithreading Support?
Hey, I was wondering, if there is a Multithreading support in the current Version. I was experimenting with the examples/simple.rs and realized, that copying a large amount of files was really slow. My Computer was running 1CPU on 100% all the time. Is there a solution to improve the performance?
I think it might be possible: https://john-millikin.com/the-fuse-protocol#multi-threading
I haven't tried to implement it though
Will you implement it in the near Future? I don't think, that I'll be able to contribute that. My knowledge is to small.
No. It'll be a long time, if ever, before I get to it

Hi, Will we consideration about the multithread version of this fuser lib? Currently, there is a performance problem due to the single message loop from /dev/fuse 'socket', and the single message loop can only run in the single core, in our tests, we use fio to test the fuser framework to get the bandwidth, we use the simple test and in each write api, we just return directly without actually write the data to underlying file system, the bandwidth is limited in the single core of the test machine, and it cannot double according to the number of fio jobs when that core reaches 100%. If we implement the multithread version of the message loop, we can spread the load into multiple cores of the machine, and we can increate the throughput then.
