• Walk away and find a not incompetent lawyer.

• Send him docx files and tell him if he can’t work with modern files he needs to fix it. It’s like $30/mo for an office subscription. There’s no excuse for him being so cheap.

Please see my original comment.

The difference is you can use inline compression and dedupe in a high performance environment. HDDs suck at random IO.

Major update? 1 hour. Minor update? 1 hour.

Spinning platter capacity can’t keep up with SSDs. HDDs are just starting to break the 30TB mark and SSDs are shipping 50+. The cost delta per TB is closing fast. You can also have always on compression and dedupe in most cases with flash, so you get better utilization.

Musk robs the treasury blind then Trump pardons him. Biggest heist ever.

So you would be using CoW in-memory in this case?

Is there a benefit to doing CoW with Pandas vs. offloading it to the storage? Practically all modern storage systems support CoW snaps. The pattern I’m used to (Infra, not big data) is to leverage storage APIs to offload storage operations from client systems.
