Just setup object storage, sync to it is slow

So I'm migrating data off the VM disk to object storage and waiting on the rsync job to finish

I mounted the bucket using s3fuse anbd when to move the 8gb of data from the linode ($5 tier) to the bucket it's running REALLY slow.

I have the bucket and linode in the Atlanta data center so kinda suprised by how slow this is. Am I being rate limited or is this a s3 limitation on writing data? Should I expect poor performance when reading the data as I'm using this for a docker volume for a small open source virtual tabletop project called PlanarAlly.

Should I be using Volumes for this instead?

Boy! Howdy! That's what I would do! The completion time of your task will decrease by several orders of magnitude…and you won't need s3fuse either (probably the culprit…along with network latency…here).

Ultimately because the write performance was so slow I elected to use volumes instead. Lighted I think I overbought at 50gb for a data set thats under 10gb, but that means I can use that for something else I guess, lmao.
