README

This module is a collection of tweaks to make Magento 2 work a bit better with remote storage.

Tweaks

Currently, there's only one tweak available. But, it's possible that more tweaks will be added in the future.

Admin Product Grid Performance

The admin product grid is slow when using remote storage. This is because the grid makes use of old interfaces that are not optimized for remote storage. For example, for each row it will check if the product exists in the remote filesystem. With latencies of 50ms or more, this can add up quickly when loading a page with 50+ products.

We replace the existing implementation by making use of a more modern method to get the URL for a product image. This method is optimized for remote storage and will not check if the file exists.

Performance improvements can range from 10x to 100x, depending on the number of products and the latency to the remote storage.
