Let's say I sync lots of folders, maybe almost a full disk minus a few system folders.
I worry that whenever a file gets modified the "FreeFileSync.exe" gets triggered and starts a full comparison that takes ages before it syncs that one file.
In the mean time I may modify another file that may ...
