<p>While object storage is cheap and durable, treating it like a filesystem often leads to performance pitfalls. Listing millions of objects is slow. Latency is unpredictable. Mount0 introduces a smart caching layer that understands the <em>semantics</em> of your data, not just the bytes.</p>

<ul>
<li class=""><strong>Zero-Copy Streaming</strong>: Pass data through from source to client with minimal overhead.</li>
<li class=""><strong>Intelligent Prefetching</strong>: Our algorithms learn access patterns to pre-warm cache for sequential reads.</li>
<li class=""><strong>Unified namespace</strong>: Mount multiple buckets and providers into a single, cohesive file tree.</li>
</ul>
<p>Mount0 isn't just a driver; it's a new way to think about cloud-native IO.</p>]]></content>
