a test compile of hugo (moderate go app) on a AMD Ryzen 7 7735HS with SSD WSL filesystem = 50s virtiofs = 75s it seems a lot faster. I don't use drvfs (windows files) usually. 50% performance gap is good. And MS Defender kicked in beforehand losing about 10 seconds. with some config you could turn off defender and get this down to 60s

> WSL filesystem = 50s > virtiofs = 75s > 50% performance gap is good. I am somewhat confused by this. How much time did the default DrvFs take? Or did you mean DrvFs when wrote virtiofs?

  Devfs = virtiofs(for this test ) . Drvfs is the param given to mount , which chooses virtiofs or 9p (plan9/ /slow) The results above are wsl vhd vs virtiofs, the new file system for accessing windows files . Plan9 /9p is the old one , not tested .

  I didn’t test plan9 because I don’t use it
