July 14, 201511 yr Hello, I've been using a cahce only share called appdata for docker container config/etc, which I'm sure many others are doing. I've been mounting it using /mnt/cache/appdata, well, just because. Is there any performance difference using /mnt/cache/appdata vs /mnt/user/appdata? I figured there'd be some user share overhead. Thanks.

Thanks. There is probably no difference most of the time, but if anything the /mnt/user/appdata will be the slower option due to the overhead of the user share system overlaid on the physical drive. There is no advantage to going through the user share path for a cache only share.
