Multi-threading upload?

Open kiyume107 opened this issue 7 years ago • 2 comments

Hello,

Is it possible to add a multi-threading option? The current version is quite stable for huge file uploading, though the overall speed performance might not seem to fully utilize the bandwidth available (or at least @ my environment, with max. bandwidth 100+ Mbps, but only 20~30 Mbps for a single thread) (At least in my case) Multi-threading would boost quite a lot for uploading a large number of files.

I have tried to open multiple instances of this program, but I'm not sure if the upload list is shared between the instances, so I just gave up fiddling with multi-instances LOL

Thanks for the very nice tool & updates!

It may be possible to implement such feature, but I'll have to see how to handle the progress bar since it's specifically made to display the progress of one file.

Have you tried changing the upload chunk setting or having the file copied to RAM before uploading?

As for upload settings, yes, I have enabled the file-copied-to-RAM option. The single-thread bandwidth issue also occurs when I try to upload my files with my browser, so it should most possibly be Google limiting single-thread upload speed (at least for me) On the other hand, multi-threading might also benefit the case of uploading a folder with 1000+ image files @ 5-10 MB each quite a lot.

Thanks again!
