Hi,
I have my remote home Win10 PC with Bitvise SSH Server.
I have same music on my client laptop and on my remote server.
I try to do a mirror sync against my remote PC. Both folders have the same content but still
FreeFileSync detects all files are new.
Only after a full sync with remote folder empty is working OK.
I use only file size as comparison criteria.
I just cannot wait to sync all my music first time coz it would take days.
Also the sync speed is terrible slow.

I found a workaround. I just copied the content of remote folder into a new one and I use the new one to compare. This solves the problem, don't know why.

This will be "fixed" in the next FFS version with support for parallel file operations.

I saw other commercial app uses P2P protocol for remote sync. It is freaking fast vs FTP.
