Depends on your requirements, I guess. I wanted a solution that would allow me to work with Linux ACLs and symlinks as well as get me the best possible performance so going native was basically the only choice. I started from this and then basically just worked around this premise. The only alternatives here were 2 – file syncing or sharing a directory with the host.
