SOLVED Cloud Sync checks are taking as much time as the sync itself

Hello, I wonder if this is an expected behaviour and if there's a way to skip the checks or speed up the process since it's absurdly taking as much time as the transfer itself but without a progress bar leaving the transfer bar at 100%. Also the file count as seen on this screenshot is 4821 ans the checks are going way higher than the number of files. Are there any particular reason because this makes it even more complicated to track progress.

A large file might be treated as multiple segments. The average file size is about 15MB which is pretty big.

Can you describe the times and which cloud provider?

Thank you for replying. I figured out some settings that really helped maximize my 1Gb connection and optimize with Google Drive. There's a 750 Gb daily limit you need to be aware of but I contacted them and ask for a 30 day lift since I need to upload my big backup a single time and the upcoming uploads won't go over 750Gb much often.

On thing that's sad about the Cloud Sync Task utility is that you can only go 1 level down in the folder structure. Selecting multiple folders on the source can work great in a subfolder on the target. But everything breaks if you create another task with a single folder. This will upload all the source folder content inside the subfolder on target instead of the source folder in the target folder.

Hope this helps someone else.
