Hi Vinai

For share hosting it difficult to change user.Then what will be good idea. For a case, i have change file permission from Magento\Framework\Exception\FileSystemException\DriverInterface i have change WRITEABLE_DIRECTORY_MODE = 0770; to WRITEABLE_DIRECTORY_MODE = 0775; and WRITEABLE_FILE_MODE = 0660 to WRITEABLE_FILE_MODE = 0664.It is working for me.

Are u thought that is identical process for share hosting ?please put your view

Thanks

Looks like its deviated from the recommendation here in the below link

http://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.0/config-guide/prod/prod_file-sys-perms.html#mage-owner-two-devel

As per the above link the file permission should have 775. Can you please clarify.

When using the xargs approach, you can add the -n parameter to limit how many arguments are given to each invocation of the utility that xargs should run. e.g. find . -type d -print0 | xargs -0 -n10 chmod 0750 would run chmod with 10 directories at a time.
