speed up sshfs

Question

SSHFS

There are two servers:
1. in Russia, pings to it are about 2ms, sshfs flies
2. in Germany, pings are about 60ms, sshfs gives delays of about 1-2 seconds to change the directory, while the ssh console flies (60ms is not noticeable to the eye ) The

question is what can be done to speed up file access
. The command to connect is now simple - sshfs who goes where.
As far as I understand from the help, this should already start the asynchronous mode with caching, but somehow the stone flower does not come out.

Answer 1

And what's with the pings? You can have a bandwidth of 100 Mb/s or 32 Kb/s. In both cases the ping will be 60ms since one packet is being sent. When you connect via sshfs, you have not one packet sent, but 10 ^ n. Hence the brakes.

Answer 2

apparently, sshfs makes a lot of requests, then this is not solved simply by settings.
in NFS it's like this: get by the name of the inode data, and so on to traverse all the pieces of the path through /
but in NFS this data is gradually cached.

Answer 3

Compression yes
CompressionLevel 9
in /etc/ssh/ssh_config try to add on the client.

Answer 4

Does ssh slow down at work or at the time of connection?
