Sometimes I have problems with my NAS drive.
For some reason, every while my LAN goes down for a short period of time, and if I was running a synchronization, FFS hangs (even if I wait until the NAS drives appears in the network again).

I have to force shutdown the app, and then restart it. Then, I have to redo a "compare", and then sync again.

The problem is that I mainly use the sync for backups, that are several Gb large, and the compare process takes lots of time. If the compare result is saved before the beginning of the synchronization, any problems in the middle that may happen would be less problematic.

Excuse me for my not so good English, I hope this suggestion is a contribution to this excellent application.
