one drive syncing is too much slow
Lou_Mickley running macOS version Catalina 10.15.7 and OneDrive client Version 20.169.0823.0006.
Don't really know what is causing it, seems like the file gets locked, or as if there are files being synchronized from one of the sites I have synced via OD that blocks the upload or something. Just did a connectivity check and as seen, I have a 50 MB downlink and 8,8 MB uplink..
Emil_B - hmmm, you have the https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/onedrive-release-notes-845dcf18-f921-435e-bf28-4e24b95e5fc0#ID0EACAAA=Mac. A couple other things to consider... Are you syncing thousands of files? MSFT recommends less than 300K limit, but I've seen lots of churn and struggle with over 50K files as it checks statuses. I've set up hundreds of thousands of customer users with hundreds of millions of files without issue, but I can't say the Mac experience has been flawless. I'd raise an issue w/ MSFT and have them help troubleshoot it. Also watch the OneDrive app and see which files it's using/testing/copying to see if that is giving insight.

Lou_Mickley I had the .0006 version and have now updated to .0008. The 300,000 file limit could be my problem. My dropbox had close 1.5 million files but unclear if that included "shared" files. I will do some trimming of folders in OneDrive today and see if that improves things as well.
