Faster FTP Upload/Download with Filezilla
« on: July 15, 2009, 09:23:52 PM »
Tired of waiting while you are uploading or downloading large amounts of files? Many sites allow for multiple connections to the server at one time (my personal server allows 8 ).

In Filezilla (a GREAT free FTP program) do the following:

EDIT > SETTINGS
click TRANSFERS
CHANGE maximum simultaneous transfers to a higher number (mine was defaulted at 2

by changing from 2 to 8 I increased my upload/download time by 400%!

Great tip.  I find best results with 3 simultaneous transfers, but I am on a single core processor and DSL at 1.5 Mbps speed (Qwest).
I must travel the path of conquest... power is necessary in order to walk that path.
