I understand 3FS is mainly designed for AI or LLM workloads and it has high performance by leveraging modern SSDs and RDMA networks. However, from the README and design notes, I can't see the design dedicated to AI workloads clearly.

I can see some parts as following:

+1, don't know how to use it with LLM reasoning framework, maybe write a quick start?
