Thanks Jonathan, I tried `vfs objects = fruit` & it didn't seem to
make a difference.

After searching around a lot, I found the tip of turning off previews
in MacOSX Finder and so far that makes life a LOT better.

Must say MacOSX out of the box support for network file systems is
pretty awful. Seems to go nuts if I restart smbd too. :/

Also doesn't help that tools Premiere Pro really misbehaves on my
remote media files unless I bother to copy them over locally. Argh...

Kind regards,
