Any user stories with *vim + mutagen for _large_ remote code bases? Vs code remote is the only thing that has been fast enough in my experience, but I would love to be able to use my local neovim instance for remote development instead and this tool looks promising.

It should work fine. Many users use Mutagen on multi-GB codebases. If we're talking something larger (say 10s of GBs or TB-sized monorepos), then there are some tweaks you can do to make life with Mutagen a little easier. Feel free to reach out to jacob[-at-]mutagen.io if you have a specific use case, or pop over to the Mutagen Community Slack Workspace[0] to chat.

I did this and Mutagen worked great. It was pretty awesome to not have any lag while developing and Mutagen was really fast to detect and sync changes. Never really noticed any delays, everything felt instant
