Maximizing FTP transfer speed when sending lots of small files
-
I have a large folder of small files and a fast connection to the net. How can I maximize the throughput to my ftp server? When I tried to transfer, only one file at a time is being sent. How can I transfer multiple files at a time?

Transferring a single small file may take more time to initialize and close the transfer than to make the transfer itself. Auto FTP Manager allows you to maximize the available bandwidth by transferring multiple files simultaneously.
To configure settings, go to File >> Settings >> Connection and choose Use Maximum transfer channels allowed by the FTP account. Click Ok to save the settings.
After making the change, the File Manager will transfer multiple files a time, as long as your FTP server allows multiple logins, up to 5 simultaneous transfers.
