Is there any reason to use the legacy S3Client instead of the new S3CrtClient?

[specious]

Now that the higher performance Aws::S3Crt::S3CrtClient is available, I'm wondering if there is any reason someone may want to use the legacy Aws::S3::S3Client instead?

[jmklix]

The Aws::S3Crt::S3CrtClient is still in preview and some things are still not implemented in it. It is also optimized for large files(multiple gb) and won't work as well for small files. So unless you want to use it for large files, the recommendation for now is to still use the legacy client.

@jmklix Is it still the case that the S3CrtClient isn't better than the legacy client for reading smaller files?

[jmklix]

As of right now yes, the S3CrtClient is not as optimized for reading smaller files.

@jmklix has the situation changed now?

[jmklix]

Not much has changed, but it might be worth running your workload with S3CrtClient to see how it works
