 #### rtorrent fails with ENODEV (No such device)
 
-Be sure to set `cache.files=partial|full|auto-full|per-processe` or
-turn off `direct_io`. rtorrent and some other applications use
-[mmap](http://linux.die.net/man/2/mmap) to read and write to files and
-offer no fallback to traditional methods. FUSE does not currently
-support mmap while using `direct_io`. There may be a performance
-penalty on writes with `direct_io` off as well as the problem of
-double caching but it's the only way to get such applications to
-work. If the performance loss is too high for other apps you can mount
-mergerfs twice. Once with `direct_io` enabled and one without it. Be
-sure to set `dropcacheonclose=true` if not using `direct_io`.
