Windows caching is very slow for large files.
This isn't really a sshfs-win
issue.
It happens when using SSHFS-Win-Manager
, doesn't happen when using net use
to mount sshfs
.
Server is Ubuntu, local computer is Windows 11, latest version of sshfs.
Everything works fine when there are many small files in a folder.
When opening a folder with 6 video files, size 700MB each, it takes two minutes for Windows to cache the files, the green progress bar goes very slow.
Trying to rename a large video file freezes the windows explorer and it does not respond anymore, killing the explorer is necessary and a reboot is needed after.
Each time I open the folder with movie files Windows downloads something for about two minutes at the speed of 3.5 mbps. I exit the directory and come back to it and windows caches stuff for another two minutes again.
When looking at the properties of mounted drives it says:
Win-manager
mounts the drive via fuse
as a local disk
.
net use
mounts it via fuse-sshfs
as network disk
.
