Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/s3fs-fuse/s3fs-fuse/issues/577

If I dont specify use_cache location , s3fs writes to a local cache in the root directory. How can I locate the s3cache directory? This is giving problem when I intend to transfer much larger file size and dont have much space on my server . I dont see anything meaningfully created in my /tmp created as well.

@vgadhadaran
If you do not specify use_cache option, s3fs uses tmpfile() function for updalo/download object.
I think the directory used by tmpfile is system dependent.
Do you have any reason why the use_cache option can not be specified?
If possible, it seems good to use this option.

Regards,

During the PUT operations, it writes 0 KB to HCP from the use_cache location.
