Large que's of small files take too long.

[kryosynth]

Que's of large amounts of small files take endless amounts of time to transfer, seemingly the program takes a lot of time to reset connection for each file..is there a way to make it upload faster it takes about 3 seconds for each file regardless of size unless it starts to get numerous megabytes in the file...

uploading to xbox?
disable PASV mode since xbox doesn't support it and it will go faster

When transferring lots of small files the "crash recovery" feature will reduce the speed at which the files are transferred.

From the FlashFXP menu, Queue > Restore Queue
Then from the Restore Queue dialog check the "Disable Crash Recovery" option.

With this feature disabled should FlashFXP or Windows crash your queue file will not be saved unless you manually save it.

*edit*

Also turn off disk based logging, This option reduces performance and should be used sparingly.
Options > Preferences > General Tab
Uncheck "Enable disk based logging"

Hrmm i did both of those items suggested, they worked-to an extent, now it is only faster in between waiting periods..the waiing period has not changed..its still 2-3 seconds per file, with intermittent bursts of fast flowing files..which is real nice i wish i could make it maintain that!

have you tried defragmenting your hard drive?

[kryosynth]

oh !# .. why didnt i think of that? ..good point, i have an automated software that is 'supposed' to be doing that at night each day, but it seems to make sense that my drive is fragmented....ill check it out.. thanks...
