Hi There,
A bit of a strange question here, I have Googled around and can't find any answers but I'm hoping someone here might know.
We've used the SharePoint Migration Tool to upload a large number of files to SharePoint. Unfortunately there are some issues with the data and we now need to make a large amount of changes which is impossible to accomplish through the web GUI so we've instead turned to the OneDrive client to help. I've managed to sync the libraries to a development PC and we've created some scripts to make the fixes to the file/folder structure.
Everything is working well except, due to the volume of files, the OneDrive client is taking a very long time to synchronise changes and is slowing the process down. I've tried setting the OneDrive.exe process to high priority but this hasn't made much difference. I've also disabled the Windows Search Service and Windows Defender scanning to give the OneDrive client as much clear air as possible. Aside from the OneDrive client, no other software is installed on the development PC.
Despite all of this, the OneDrive client is using very little resource on the PC (0.5% CPU, 0.1% Disk, 0.1mps network). It is consuming a lot of memory but only about 75% of the available. It's taking around hours (10 - 12) to synchronise each batch run.
My question is, are there any developer (etc.) settings I can change on the OneDrive client to encourage it to use more resource, ideally maxing out everything the PC can give it? Ideally we want this thing synchronising as fast as it can physically sync.
Thanks very much in advance.
Olly
