#### Windows support - Experimental ####
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
There are a couple of issues with Windows `mount` functionality that still require some investigations.
|
||||||
|
It should be considered as experimental thus far as fixes come in for this OS.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Most of the issues seem to be related to the difference between filesystems
|
||||||
|
on Linux flavors and Windows as cache is heavily dependant on them.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Any reports or feedback on how cache behaves on this OS is greatly appreciated.

#### Risk of throttling ####
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Future iterations of the cache backend will make use of the pooling functionality
|
||||||
|
of the cloud provider to synchronize and at the same time make writing through it
|
||||||
|
more tolerant to failures.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
There are a couple of enhancements in track to add these but in the meantime
|
||||||
|
there is a valid concern that the expiring cache listings can lead to cloud provider
|
||||||
|
throttles or bans due to repeated queries on it for very large mounts.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Some recommendations:
|
||||||
|
- don't use a very small interval for entry informations (`--cache-info-age`)
|
||||||
|
- while writes aren't yet optimised, you can still write through `cache` which gives you the advantage
|
||||||
|
of adding the file in the cache at the same time if configured to do so.

||||||
