Filesystems mounted using P3FS are live, and can require a password for extra security. However, due to tiny delays in WebSockets and Socket.io, P3FS filesystems are the most slow filesystem (just by a couple milliseconds) and sometimes can even be slower than remote ROFS filesystems.
Users can optionally specify a drive label and password for users to connect.

Due to latency, speed issues and shortcomings of P3, hosted drives are often slower than ROFS filesystems.

P3FS

P3FS is a feature introduced in Windows 96 Lite to host and mount network filesystems over P3.

Users can optionally specify a drive label and password for users to connect.

Limitations

Due to latency, speed issues and shortcomings of P3, hosted drives are often slower than ROFS filesystems.
