Apple has a huge problem with APFS.
This disk bench shows that APFS is 20x slower than in a VIRTUAL MACHINE with ext4.
TWENTY times slower.
This is unacceptable.

Always format your drives as APFS, even spinny mechanical drives, not just SSDs. They will be significantly more responsive when opening large and very large folders.

I had to throttle my CPU down to 550MHz to make ext4 as slow as Apple's APFS
this is an ~10x (x 12 cores) speed *reduction* to match APFS "performance".

On macOS: if you need to `cp -a` a large directory, use `cp -ac`. The `-c` takes advantage of APFS copy-on-write, so no contents are actually copied until you edit the file. Much faster.

apfs supports snapshots right? could it theoretically make a snapshot of the current root fs, pivot root to the snapshot, then install the update to the real root, then reboot from that as usual? i know literally nothing about darwin or apfs so theres probably something that wont work here lmao
