Upload Speed #96

Closed gitsapuser closed 3 years ago

It took about 15 minutes to upload a 1GB file even with the accelerated endpoint enabled. Typically s3 upload times for me using the AWS console is about the same. Is there a way to increase the upload time?

I'd expect the upload time to be comparable to the awscli or the AWS S3 console over the same connection, and that's what I see in practice. Obviously, your ISP connection speed is going to play a large part in this.

I did a few quick tests: from a laptop over wifi where speedtest.net reports 150Mbps upload speed, I can upload 1GB in 70-90s (direct to S3, not using accelerated endpoint). The same upload from awscli took a similar amount of time and was a little slower using the AWS S3 Console (maybe 10-20% slower).

How does your upload time compare to, for example, uploading the same file to Google Drive or an FTP site? What does speedtest report for your ISP connection?

LOL, my speed test for upload is 11.69Mbps which explains it all. You're right, ISP is a big piece of this. Thank you and kudos to this tool that I find very helpful for my use-case.
