My current sync is primarily small pdf files, only uploading 2 at a time at 1 per second is going to take 21 days to finish syncing… I dont have 21 days. Having the option to increase the upload connections would be amazing (don’t care if I max out my home upload connection), but it would be even better to allow us to set the number of transfers at once as well as specify a max upload and max download speed. Why isn’t the number of upload threads user configurable? Limiting to 2 concurrent uploads doesn’t do anything to conserve bandwidth because when it does upload larger files it does seem to utilize the available bandwidth, so much so that i can not run Insync at my office as it tends to hog bandwidth when uploading large file and affects our VoIP quality, so I bring the backup home and upload from there. I’m in Florida and trying to upload a full backup of our files before Hurricane Irma gets here. I’m on a 50mb/s upload connection, I really would like to see Insync utilize this upload bandwidth. Currently have about 78,800 files left to sync (under 200 gig).
Initial sync is only uploading (after scanning completed) about 1 file every second. Here is yet another thread dealing with the same issue and same empty promises:īump. All of this adds up to these huge delays when doing initial syncs and re-sync! This is a total waste of time and resources by storing folder data that sit totally outside of the selected synced folder(s). I still do not understand why you feel the need to continuously keep doing full background syncs even if one has set up a selective sync folder(s) set. I was promised that this is a feature that was being looked into but as always its been months (just look at when this thread started) and its still only pie in the sky. This will significantly speed up the initial sync and also any later re-syncs.
The initial sync can then be limited to only the selected folders which in most cases will be a fraction of the total drive. I have made the suggestion before that as a default when you initially connect a new GDrive account, it should not automatically select the whole drive but rather give you an option to only select the folders you are interested in syncing (like you can do with selective syncing). In a large number of cases users are not interested in syncing their whole GDrive but rather only specific folders. The problem is that you are trying to scan the whole of the linked Google Drive initially.
