@agentofuser Not sure to be honest. The new version of dat changes a bunch of how the storage works, so it might help with your performance issues when it comes out. I'd keep an eye out for an announcement some time soon. 💜

@agentofuser yes, this is exactly what dat 2.0 helps with -- tons of small files bork dat currently

@RangerMauve I've been having trouble keeping the dat archive up to date. I might be doing something wrong, because running dat sync takes up 100+% CPU and is really really slow to create metadata. It can't keep up with the downloads even, which aren't that frequent, so I haven't been able to catch up to the latest crates. Would this be because of too many very small files? Is there some tweaking I can do to speed it up? Thanks!

Whoops, kinda late on this, but I'm putting the newsletter together now.
