A question I’ve been meaning to ask for a while.
I have a pretty fast internet connection that should allow upload of a 5mb file in just a few seconds. … given various caveats a file this size shouldn’t really take longer than 30 seconds maybe
Typically, transferring a file of this size takes about 4 minutes to iCloud.
Is this due to Apple server congestion? If one has a couple of TB of storage does this still entail a circuitous route, of sorts?
Others may chime-in but in general Apple throttles down iCloud synchronization to what is in essence a background process. Whether it’s to load-balance their servers or to keep your system more responsive or both would require an investigation I’m unwilling to undertake.

Yeah, this happens with me that, but have not understood yet, why?
the concept makes sense to me if you’re uploading a whole pack of files in GB level uploads,
but a 4 mb file taking 4 minutes is a bit … over-kill on the lackadaisical side of things LOL
