164 | | Yes. Tahoe-LAFS comes with an [source:git/docs/frontends/FTP-and-SFTP.rst SFTP server]. If you point [http://fuse.sourceforge.net/sshfs.html sshfs] at the SFTP server then you have access to Tahoe-LAFS through FUSE. Alternately, [wiki:pyFilesystem pyfilesystem] interfaces directly with Tahoe-LAFS through the latter's [source:git/docs/frontends/webapi.rst WAPI] and provides both FUSE and Microsoft Windows filesystem access. See #1353 for discussion of possible improvements to FUSE integration.

| 166 | There could be performance problems with the FUSE interface if the apps that are using the filesystem use it in a way that doesn't fit Tahoe-LAFS's semantics, and the FUSE layer is required to make many copies of entire files in order to simulate the desired semantics.
