@BlakPilar the software has to first process the files, and then transfer them over the internet. And this program says 8/9 hours from the second the backup begins. That tells me that its slow at processing and preparing files to be transferred over the web.
@BlakPilar this is not mediafire, this is a backup provider, who should compress and encrypt my files, move them to the server using my upload speed, in the quickest way possible. If I am backing up a 2gb folder, it better not transfer 2gbs over the net! otherwise its a pretty crappy backup provider. I have done 9gb backups that have taken 20-30 minutes, with a 1mb/s upload speed(and not using all of it).
@OnlyPartizani I know this isn't Mediafire, I was just using it as a reference. I'm using CrashPlan right now and I'm transferring >17GB at 10-400kb/s (one of the lines is down with my ISP) and it's taking 12 hours to 2 days depending on the connection speed, so I know what you mean
@BlakPilar buddy I feel bad for you. You either work for them, or are stuck using them, either way this software is not the solution. Good luck in the future.
@OnlyPartizani Nope, don't work for them and I don't use them anymore lol. It's easier for me to just load things up on my flash drive then transfer to my other computer that way. About 12 hours faster...
Lol too long? Nah, I am uploading 2.4 terabytes to crashplan going 4 months total, 2 months left.
I am only on a 15/2.2 line, so it's not insanely long.

I backed up over 85GB in less than 3 hours FYI ;)

9 hours for a 2gb backup? no thanks.

@OnlyPartizani It's not the program, it all depends on your connection

@OnlyPartizani Ok, how long does it take you to upload 2GB to something like Mediafire?
