Where can I modify the # of concurrent rsync operations?

Hi,

Is there a way to allow concurrent rsync file transfers to different drives?
I realize rsync is sometimes used to transfer files over network, thus limiting it to one file at a time makes sense, however I am moving files in my local machine and it isn't fast enough to move them one at a time;

Anybody figured out how to do that? :) Thank you

That feature has been discussed but no implementation has been started for it yet.

That's awesome, you will really like madMAx and hopefully add more features 👍

I am glad you suggested the workaround with the swap partition as I was thinking the same but didn't dare to try it haha! Will give this one a go!

I will checkout the suggested plot_manager, although my script is doing fine, requires a bit of manual work to change directories when HDD is full 👎

Thank you for your time, good luck on this great project!

I'd like to add a feature request: Bladebit support. That is a situation where a buffer drive and an rsync would be beautiful.

I have an in-work PR to clean up the handling of multiple supported plotters. That will finish first. Then we can work on BladeBit support.

Awesome. Thank you for the update. I'll be sure to donate some funds.

Since it was mentioned here, here's preliminary BladeBit support. #916 (comment)
