This article provides recommendations for working with directories that contain large numbers of files. It's usually a good practice to reduce the number of files in a single directory by spreading the files over multiple directories. However, there are situations in which large directories can't be avoided. Consider the following suggestions when working with large directories on Azure file shares that are mounted on Linux clients.

`Nconnect` is a client-side mount option for NFS file shares that allows you to use multiple TCP connections between the client and the Azure Premium Files service for NFSv4.1. We recommend the optimal setting of `nconnect=4` to reduce latency and improve performance. `Nconnect` can be especially useful for workloads that use asynchronous or synchronous I/O from multiple threads. [Learn more](nfs-performance.md#nconnect).
