Trouble with WebDAV performance :-(

you should mention this in the “solution”. because this may add significant latence to your

Makes sense, I’ve just done that.

@Reiner_Nippes

do you have to sync the 4300 often or just initial?

This was an attempt to move contents from our previous (Apache-moddav-backed) WebDAV server to NextCloud, which is intended to be the successor.

So, in this case I only have to sync it once, but

1. it’s only a small fraction of all data which has to be synced and
2. similar amounts of data might also be added any time during normal use of the WebDAV drive.

So a performance like this would not be really usable for us, not even if we’re working with a few files only.

Actually, even interactive performance while using it as a davfs2 mounted file system is really bad compared to the moddav-based solution - we’ll just try if we can get used to this much slower speed and/or will try to use the sync client more.
