@emma:rory.gay | its not sync, though im trying to avoid extra lookups given that, well... >100ms latency between client and version | 10:52:31 |

@saiko:knifepoint.net | ah, are you mounting it over the internet? | 10:53:59 |
@emma:rory.gay | yes, across continents no less | 10:55:22 |
@emma:rory.gay | (not security sensitive, so lack of encryption is fine) | 10:55:56 |
@emma:rory.gay | though here's one thing NFS does appear to be far better at: parallel lookups | 10:56:30 |
@emma:rory.gay | it doesnt do the entire speeding up/hanging/slowing down thing sshfs does | 10:56:44 |
@saiko:knifepoint.net | okay, no idea about that, I’ve only done NFS across short distances where the latency was somewhat okay, and there it was alright if you were patient | 10:58:23 |
@saiko:knifepoint.net | maybe a distributed filesystem would be better here if you want this to be fast, though that’s also something I’ve never used (but want to) | 10:59:36 |
@emma:rory.gay | okay, maybe i should explain what im trying to accomplish in the first place:
im trying to debug and fix some code (nodejs) in production, as it cant really be tested (its not nixos, the src/dist dirs are read/write...)
my IDE really hates remote filesystems, so im trying to make it as smooth as possible (thanks jetbrains)
before even trying to do it this way i was making a git commit, pushing to github and pulling constantly, slowing down any attempt to debug things a lot | 11:02:01 |
K900 | Jetbrains stuff has proper remoting now no? | 11:02:20 |
@emma:rory.gay | doesnt that have the entire "oh but my binaries!" problem? | 11:03:27 |
