Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Gcsfuse: A user-space file system for interacting with Google Cloud Storage
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...)

Does Cloud file store have life cycle management feature ?
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.

Google Cloud Storage FUSE
Is this the same gcsfuse that's been around for years, only now with official Google support?

RANT: MICROSOFT'S INABILITY TO SUPPORT THEIR OWN HARDWARE IS GOING TO KILL ME
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.

Gcsfuse: A user-space file system for interacting with Google Cloud Storage
FUSE does not work well with a large number of small files (due to high metadata ops such as inode/dentry lookups).
ExtFUSE (optimized FUSE with eBPF) [1] can offer you a high performance. It caches metadata in the kernel to avoid lookups in user space.
