It uses FUSE and there's three types of Kernel cache you could use with FUSE (although, it seems like gcsfuse is exposing only one):
1. Cache of file attributes in the Kernel (this is controlled by "stat-cache-ttl" value - https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/gcsfuse/blob/7dc5c7ff...)

You're looking at Filestore because your software can only write to a mounted file system? If so, you could mount a Google Cloud Storage bucket with Fuse. I haven't used Fuse myself in production, but it may be worth trying out for your workload.

I'm pretty sure the storage for a stopped VM vs a disk image will be the same. Cheaper if you can store your data in GCS bucket? Take a look at GCS-Fuse to mount storage buckets into a VM.
