Thank you , we will look at it a bit more but from a first glace it seems like the tool was having a hard time uploading your files to Azure.

What was the sample: a few very large files or a lot of small files?

Thanks

Hi Simon,

It was 37,1GB and 446 files and 54 folders, i also tried it with half of that number and i got the same result.

  I believe one of the publically available Microsoft APIs only supports uploads up to 2 GB per file in order to boost performance. If they are using that API, that may be contributing to your issue.

    the Sharepoint Migration tool support up to 15GB files starting in version 2.65.0 if you have an issue with it please let me know.
