I skimmed through the article, but I have a question that I hope someone can answer. I have a sparse disk image created on a NAS (which runs Linux), and I use it to backup some stuff (not a VM) from the Mac in the native format (the macOS APFS file system).
Would this new format, ASIF, make this faster and better whenever I switch to macOS Tahoe? I hope there wouldn’t be any gotchas with respect to storing this disk image on a NAS.
Yeah I’m interested in this as well. There’s something about the way time machine works over SMB that is absolutely unfashionably dog-slow. I suspect SMB performance on mac is just not very good in general tbf
