I have a couple issues with repeating file syncs that don't complete and very slow sync overall.
I have been using cloudsync for a while on my DS918+ syncing to onedrive to good effect with no obvious issues. However lately I have had some issues where it appears to be syncing the same files over and over, if you hover over the 'recently modified files' you can see this, however these same files don't ever seem to complete. If I check the log, other files or folders have synced but very slowly iIt appears to be taking 5-10 mins to sync a single folder, with no contents) but not the repeating files, which then start again, in a loop. There is no obvious file type that repeat, they include *.cat, *.icm, *.exe for example (they are monitor driver etc files I think), and they are not in use on my windows 11 machine.
I was also finding the NAS was flooding my pihole with DNS requests, so I have turned that off for now to try and simplify the set-up to find out whats wrong. I have enabled DNS over https (cloudflared) for now, and this tests as working.
I have also tried pausing, unlinking, reauthorising and multiple restarts of the NAS and router. In the settings, polling period is still every 600 seconds, with no limit on traffic control. There is no encryption being used, the sync is bidrectional, and I have advanced consistency check enabled. I have changed the concurrent uploads/downloads to 15. I estimate the size overall is around 181gb and its a mixture of office and photos, but for home use. My home connection is 80meg down, and 20 meg up.
I have plenty of space on the NAS and onedrive. Any ideas on how to solve?
