I&#8217;ve tried to ensure that all API&#8217;s remain the same, however some have changed their behaviour slightly, to ensure that FullFAT works more consistently. Here is a list of the changes so far: Correct Error Checking All Errors flow [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve been performance profiling all aspects of FullFAT, particularly with respect to directory traversal, and file opening. So far I&#8217;ve been able to make gains of more than a 1000x improvement. This performance optimisation is going to continue of the next few [...]]]></description>
