But it > would probably do what you want. This is how FUSE is designed. The caching is supposed to happen in the kernel upper layers. The requests are sent as received from the kernel so there is nothing httpfs can do about the granularity. In practice the kernel requests up to ~16k chunks but probably only when the application does large block reads. I tried keep-alive which should speed up subsequent requests. However, the sockets can then hang, and it takes time to detect that. Still this should happen only when there are network problems anyway. It is very nice for mounting CD or DVD images, extracting a single file from a zip could also be faster. If you want all the files anyway it's probably better to just download the zip. Also last time I looked the httpfs at SF was broken, there was a bug around the SSL #ifdefs in read/write. You may need to define or undefine USE_SSL or fix the code. FUSE is theoretically portable to *BSD but not the code there because it uses undefined behaviour of directory operations to make the underlying directory still visible after the mount. Thanks Michal
