FUSE To Enjoy A Performance Improvement With Linux 6.16

([Linux Storage] 73 Minutes Ago FUSE Buffer Size)


Queued up via the FUSE "for-next" Git branch ahead of the upcoming Linux 6.16 merge window is a change to increase the read directory buffer size to in turn enhance the performance.

For those making use of a FUSE-based file-system for file-systems in user-space, with the upcoming Linux 6.16 kernel you may see better performance. Red Hat's Miklos Szeredi has increased the buffer size for readdir to match the count requested by user-space. In turn this should improve performance but no specific performance numbers were shared as part of the commit message.

[1]The patch is queued in FUSE for-next and thus expected for the Linux 6.16 merge window barring any last minute issues from being reported.

Windows 95 Beer: A lot of people have taste-tested it and claim it's
wonderful. The can looks a lot like Mac Beer's can, but tastes more like
Windows 3.1 Beer. It comes in 32-oz. cans, but when you look inside, the
cans only have 16 oz. of beer in them. Most people will probably keep
drinking Windows 3.1 Beer until their friends try Windows 95 Beer and say
they like it. The ingredients list, when you look at the small print, has
some of the same ingredients that come in DOS beer, even though the
manufacturer claims that this is an entirely new brew.
