support for readdirplus

[DeDeRon]

hello,

are there any plans to support this request type? it would speed up reading directories a lot. in my case i have directories with 1000 files, so performance suffers from all the additional lookup requests.

regards,
heiko

Would love to. #58 sits in the queue before it, though, and right now I'm in the middle of a very large refactor to clean up internals.

Is this going to be included in you'r new API/refactoring?
In some use cases readdirplus might speed up even further than #58 ...

Is this going to happen? I saw other library having it now. https://github.com/hanwen/go-fuse/blob/f57e95bda82d40dd4b2ceb1065fbd98c834ba23b/fuse/opcode.go#L60

Are you working on it, or paying for it? Don't be an entitled brat.

I was planning to work on this if no new progress. Did you already have some thoughts/design/suggestions about it already?

The assumptions of the current ReadDir behavior are pretty deeply written into the code I inherited. Step 1 is figuring out the right API, and the implications of that on current callers.
