Comment on Google Cloud Storage FUSEparent

Comments

Using FUSE doesn't cost you anything extra, but it doesn't make the underlying storage free.

You will be doing storage operations silently and in a unoptimized fashion, more so if the underlying FUSE filesystem is implemented in a naive fashion.

For example, Cloud Storage never moves or renames your objects; copying and deleting the original one instead. This can end up costing quite a lot if you're using data other that in "standard store" because of minimum storage duration.
