Hi

I'm using Filezilla as FTP Client to upload fastq data to Galaxy but it is horribly slow (52KiB/s), is there another faster alternative? I plan on uploading quite a few files but at this rate I'll not be able to start analysing them until next year!

Thanks in advance

I've just verified that we aren't experiencing any connectivity issues and my upload speeds are fast.  The upload speeds you're seeing are most likely caused by a lack of bandwidth at the location you're connecting from -- are you able to try a different location?

Hello,

This is on the public Main Galaxy instance at http://usegalaxy.org? There are no known issues at this time. Upload of a fastq file using Filezilla ranges between 1.5-2 MiB/s from a test external site.

The transfer speed is a combination of the internet capabilities on both sides - Galaxy and the FTP client. You can run a "speedtest" tool through your browser to see what your upload speed is, it may explain things. If slower, you can try to load compressed (gz) files instead, they will be smaller.

Hopefully this helps, Jen, Galaxy team
