DSM 7, which was just released, finally implements vfs_fruit, which makes SMB browsing via a Mac much better and faster.

I will have to check this out. Do you believe that this will help iOS?

I have a Synology, which I tend to run a little behind updates, since it is not directly connected to the internet. Trying to look through files on an iPad or iPhone is ... painful. The search does not work in the slightest. It loses the connection. Scanning a directory takes forever and is not cached ...

Yes it should help massively.

You can’t downgrade and there are some issues with upgrading (eg takes some work to properly migrate some packages like Plex over), so upgrade carefully and thoughtfully, but it’s been fine for me.
