Hi Malaka, Thank you for your response.
As you mentioned, you have done a similar development to optimize and manage local file system using Java NIO [1] instead of Commons-vfs. [2] So my goal is to find such mechanism which is more unique to ftp/sftp protocol, in order to support file operations via ftp/sftp protocol. So, I will come up with my suggestions with best mechanism that is to be used for file operations via ftp/sftp protocol rather than Commons-vfs. Please share if you have any recommended methods or suggestions to get a better approach to this project. Also I do confirm that I am a full time student and eligible to participate GSoC.
