Hello,
I’ve just finished setting up my Seafile server. I’m now starting to sync my 3 TB library from my Windows client to the server. I’m pretty confused by the lack of configuration options in the clients and I don’t understand why Seafile isn’t constantly uploading. I’m reaching speeds that can saturate my gigabyte link when it transfers a big file, but then it “idles” for a while.
Here’s an excerpt from the log:

Is there any way to force the client to sync many files at once? The CPU is barely doing anything on both sides. I don’t see any bottleneck. The client gets stuck on “uploading file list” ((‘normal’, ‘commit’) → (‘normal’, ‘fs’)) for over a minute then finally uploads ((‘normal’, ‘fs’) → (‘normal’, ‘data’)).
Thanks
