We host a static site service where users can manage their sites via ssh (https://pgs.sh). Previously we used minio for object storage but have become frustrated by its perf issues on smaller VMs, don't need the distributed features, and wanted something a little lighter weight. We initially thought Garage could check most of our boxes but very quickly discovered perf issues there as well.

So we decided to build out our own filesystem adapter and recently deployed it. It's pretty exciting to have our own solution that does exactly what we need and appears significantly faster.

It makes us want to open source pgs.sh because it has fewer dependencies in order to deploy.
