Hi,

when using geany on a fuse mounted fs, the logs show most of the effort is geany writing temp files back and forth.

Is there some way to configure it write them into say, the temp directory?

Hi,

Unfortunately, no. For two reasons:

1. it actually happens inside Glib and isn't in our control 2. the temporary may be renamed back to the original file, so it has to be on the original volume

This behaviour happens if new files do not create with the same permissions and other metadata as the original, then Glib copies the old data to a temporary and writes over the original keeping the metadata, but as you say this requires three file transfers instead of one. Maybe you could investigate why the permissions or other metadata of new files does not match the original.

Note that you can save the transfers at some risk if you don't use safe file saving, but I wouldn't do that for remote files, they are the ones that are going to fail, so you are back where you started :(
