  • There is a reason for that since S3 is not block storage and doesn’t have a Hierarchal filesystem. That’s why when you create folder in the S3 console what you are really creating is a prefix meaning its just a placeholder to auto add the prefix string to the beginning of all objects. But all objects in the bucket are flat when it comes to the API. Plus the way the files are stored in the shards in S3. You can limit Throughput by treating prefixes like a hierarchical filesystem too much.











  • It just seems odd to me if there is no maintenance why not just build a package yourself from the devs provided source code? Maybe I’m just an old man but it seems without the on going maintenance it would be about the same as for example using buildpackage and apt-build on Debian but that is a local repo for just me. So if something goes wrong it only affects me not the whole internet.
