Use S3 buckets as network file systems #307

Hi there,
Keep in mind that generally S3 cannot offer the same performance or
semantics as a local file system. More specifically:
- random writes or appends to files require rewriting the entire object,
optimized with multi-part upload copy
- metadata operations such as listing directories have poor performance
due to network latency
- non-AWS providers may have eventual consistency so reads can
temporarily yield stale data (AWS offers read-after-write consistency since
Dec 2020)
- no atomic renames of files or directories
- no coordination between multiple clients mounting the same bucket
- no hard links
- inotify detects only local modifications, not external ones by other
clients or tools
Regards, J
