[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Opening and working with remote files (webdav) (#1316)

[elextr]

As you are probably aware, Geany does not open remote files, it opens a local mount of the file, so the problem is in the filesystem that provides that mount, probably a FUSE system, not in Geany.

Gedit does not use a local mount IIUC, it accesses remote files directly via GVFS.

Try comparing the speed of `cat` on the mount point Geany reads with `gvfs-cat` accessing the server directly.

There have been thoughts about having Geany use GVFS as well, but nobody has had sufficient effort available to do and test this.
