### Hashed Storage coverage
We are incrementally moving every storable object in GitLab to the Hashed Storage pattern. You can check the current
coverage status below.
Not that things stored in S3 compatible endpoint, will not have the downsides mentioned earlier, if they are not
prefixed with
`#{namespace}/#{project_name}`
, which is true for CI Cache and LFS Objects.
