### Performance
The SFTP frontend currently performs no caching (sshfs does cache by default, although not very aggressively). Some applications assume that file operations have relatively low latency, and may have very poor performance when working directly with a Tahoe filesystem. In this case it may be better to copy files to a local filesystem and work on them there, then copy back any changes. Note that just browsing a directory may cause some apps to perform many unnecessary reads of files in that directory.
