changing prefix of berrymuch ? #54

Open karawitan opened 3 years ago

Hi !

opening this ticket to discuss about the berrymuch prefix. Current prefix is: /accounts/1000/shared/documents

This cause a least one important issue: important slowdown of device operation due to regular automatic folder scanning by the OS, number of files, etc.

Proposal one is to change in favor of: /accounts/1000/shared/misc/clitools

Proposal two is to change in favor of: /sdcard/external_sd/misc/clitool

This may allow a massive performance improvement, cause the sdcard memory runs much faster than internal storage. But the sdcard has no exec flag by default, so we need to imagine a wrapper to copy the executable files to /dev/shmem first, then execute, then remove the file (otherwise RAM will fill up)

Let's discuss about this changes, what do you think ?
