Thank you! I have covered this question in a different comment:

> In short, GCSF tends to be faster in several cases (listing files recursively, reading large files from Drive). The caching strategy it uses also leads to very fast reads (x4-7 improvement compared to google-drive-ocamlfuse) for files that have been cached, at the cost of using more RAM.

> On the other hand, I arrived at the conclusion that google-drive-ocamlfuse provides a better overall experience, as it already has an active community behind it. My goal with GCSF is to more or less close the gap between the two projects and reach the same level of functionality.

I did one as well. It's a no brainer: a semester to do whatever you want as long as you get someone to agree to mark it.

It was required for us, one semester of “independent study” where you must select a research adviser (professor) and produce a final report. I did mine on “TorCoin” and it was an awesome experience, the only time I legitimately enjoyed school.

Definitely not the only time I enjoyed school, but definitely my favourite part.
