Minikube docs are recommending AGAINST using 9P. I hope this changes things, not only in terms of speed but also making it more reliable.
At the moment shared filesystems are a major PITA to setup/maintain over different platforms.

Not gonna lie, I was somewhat taken aback by what I initially read as a "massive 9fps improvement" with AVX. 😸

How does 9pfs compare to virtiofs ? It even seems to have a windows driver.

Windows host support for 9pfs export to guests V2 patch will be merged "soon".
There's a 32-bit Windows guest 9pfs driver here.
I've used sshfs for Windows guest to mount Linux host fs where high performance isn't important.
On WinXP I even used Samba. <Shudder/>.Last edited by linuxgeex; 16 November 2022, 07:09 PM.
