      Thanks for hotfixing this. I'm not sure how one could read from S3 directly without going for FUSE / s3fs. Perhaps, we could agree to store large files in /scratch/cache/....

      That could definitely work, as long as you protect against race conditions. I think there are a few options going forward (including FUSE-mounting S3). The current approach doesn't scale beyond using a single runner machine. Anyhow, in this particular case, would migrating to xrootd bypass the storage issue?

      I'm open to migrating to XRootD. What is stopping that is that the required background files are currently missing there, and we'd need to convert them to ROOT format. Ideally, we'd support both cases to allow users some flexibility.
