I looked at the 300k files article you linked. Its saying that having more the 300k files synced locally is bad for performance. I cant tell how many I have synced exactly. But just to be clear I don't have our entire 60TB 7.8 million file network synced.

Also my machine is pretty high spec which the article points out makes a difference.
