Very interesting. I'd like to learn more about how it works. How does this compare to DVC[1], for instance?

I'll throw in a shameless plug for my tool in this area, Dud[2]. Dud is to DVC what Flask is to Django.

Are the mentioned benchmarks published somewhere?

SnowFS is still at the beginnings, so it will shape over time. For the benchmarks, these are the results on a MacBook-2019 with APFS for a 4GB file:

[git add texture.psd: 20164ms] [snow add texture.psd: 4596ms] [git rm texture.psd: 575ms] [snow rm texture.psd: 111ms] [git checkout HEAD~1: 9739ms] [snow checkout HEAD~1: 1ms]

You might get slightly slower speeds on NTFS for 'add' and 'checkout' but still very performant
