# Performance

Performance when copying data into GCS is comparable to gsutil (see
[issue #22][issue-22] for testing notes). There is some overhead due to staging
of data in temporary files before writing out to GCS, which is unavoidable given
the file system semantics.

If you notice unreasonable performance, please [file an issue][issues].
