Fixes the EIO error experienced by some exporting mergerfs over NFS. Turns out it was both a kernel bug and a mergerfs bug. Hence why it took so long to track down.
For those who us...

A big list of "quality of life" features.
There hasn't been much in the way of public updates for mergerfs the past several months. I did start working on major rewrites of mergerfs for v3 but got side tracked with 3DO related projects. Mostly tooling to help with media conversion as well as an easier to use development toolkit. I hope to get back to mergerfs soon.

Have listed out some ideas I have for mergerfs v3.X. Please check it out and throw in some ideas if you have them.

Took a bit longer to get out than I had hoped. I was fooling with a few other features that I considered including but since those are still baking I figured I'd release it as it was.

Hope everyone is well. Sorry for lack of updates lately. Been doing a lot of random experimentation but haven't made too much progress with any particular project of mine.
But it wasn't all just messing around. I finally did a proper release of scorch with a few new features.
Thank you to patrons. Thank you users.

This is a few weeks old but I was on the Jupiter Network's Extras Show talking about mergerfs back in October. I go into some of the technical aspects of mergerfs. Might be interesting for some.

2019-07-11 11:06:47 +0000 UTC View PostI've added a bunch of new features and enhancements lately and I've got a list of things to investigate. Wanted to lay them out here and see if there are anything users might be looking for.
* readdir_plus support: Will be easy to add. Probably come in 2.29. Should improve performance of `ls -lh` and the like. It combines the request for f...

Some things I'm considering:
* statfs caching: statfs calls are on the expensive side and done regularly but on average the data doesn't change drastically between each call. A cache may help improve performance with certain usage patterns.
* stat ca...
2018-12-05 21:19:13 +0000 UTC View PostEarlier this year I took a break from mergerfs and took over maintenance of the libretro 4DO core. I cleaned up the code, fixed misc bugs, and made a few quality of life improvements. There is still a lot that could be done to improve performance and compatibility but lack of documentation and complexity of the existing code makes that tough. So I ...
