Just an idea put to discussion, not more not less. real webhosting using ftp or to some other pc using ftp i personally use freefilesync. an FTP server enforcing a speed limit for each connection). Fix Gif, Tif, Ico generating multiple files when not used as icon.

long response times on a slow network connection) or they cannot use the full bandwidth available (e.g. This speeds up synchronization times dramatically in cases where single I/O operations have significant latency (e.g. You only need to specify the target and source directories, and the sync option that you require (such as mirroring or two-way sync). Performance Improvements FreeFileSync can be set up to issue multiple file accesses in parallel. Source: Best File Copy Software for Windows and Mac. Pros: FreeFileSync is an easy, free way to keep your data up-to-date in multiple locations. I am also fine by this if you would say, theoretically nice, but too special case and too complex to code. Also, it makes use of multi-threads to read, write, verify, overlapped. Maybe read once what we have on the source disks and then have independed mirror jobs that run autark and in parallel. To do that, open FreeFileSync and save the last session as a Batch job by clicking on the appropriate icon. We have so powerful computer that those three jobs could ideally run in parallel was my idea. You can also create real-time file synchronization between folders with FreeFileSync. It was simply an idea whether the good maybe could be done even better, because currently you loose time, as you need to wait for the other jobs to finish.

The program can be installed in two versions: as a standard installer on Windows or as a portable application (no registry entries). It also works on 64bit operating systems on all platforms.

My rule of thumb for threading is 2 to 4 threads per physical disk. FreeFileSync is a free, open source folder comparison and synchronization software for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X. Its even very nice that I can start the three jobs and that the other jobs wait, until the source drives are available again so that all 3 started jobs will run though. My take on this is that is way too many threads. don't get me wrong, I am very satisfied with the current solution and it runs smooth and reliable. Here a drawing to make the proposal clear, many thanks for your time and this great product.īTW. Handles renames: moved/renamed files are detected and not stored or. Maybe only 1 mirror job that starts one mirror thread per destination disk ? Multithreading: the backup can be done in multiple threads of execution concurrently. Would it be possible to parallelize this further to reduce the required time for backup ?
I automated this daily mirror with Windows "Task Service" and I am using the FreeFileSync versioning feature to keep the last x versions (in a different directory tree to be able to quickly remove the backup versions, if disk space is low).Ĭurrently I have to use three separated mirror jobs which can not run in parallel as FreeFileSync kind of blocks the source folders that are being mirrored. Daily to the internal 10TB disk and additionally to two external USB disks. I am mirroring the same 2,8 TB data to multiple backup targets.
