I was using this for awhile but the sync algorithm is retarded. It spent all of its time syncing gigs of meta data and saturating my upload rate. Also be prepared to make room for the 100mb+ process as it does not seem to care about memory efficiency.
I guess I'm still stuck with rsync and cronjobs until they work out the issues.
Indeed. Prepare to wait hours for newly added files to be synced, prepare for immense memory footprints, prepare for the worst conflict resolution you've ever seen.
Been using it for several months now, but would have to agree with this.
It often seems to churn away endlessly shoving meta data back and forth, and has periodically gotten confused about what files have been deleted or moved. Also had an issue where it kept duplicating some files. Toss a directory with a few thousand small files in it and it takes forever to sync. Not particularly light either.
They have a way to go to make it clean and elegant, but being able to seamlessly sync between Mac and Windows machines anywhere, without having to store in their cloud is nice.
Agreed -- I've exchanged many many emails with the developer to try to resolve my issues, but eventually gave up after trying for weeks to get it to sync a photos dir between my laptop and desktop (30,000 photos, 60GB).
Really hope they work it out one day, because I'd love the functionality for keeping dirs in sync w/o having to pay for the cloud portion; but right now its primary use case for me (dealing with dirs larger than I want stored in dropbox) appears to also be its Achilles' heel.
