Dennis, In which case 3hrs surprises me, although it does depend on the speed of your broadband and possibly your FTP program. My largest pedigree file is around 9000 and takes nothing like that, not sure how long, maybe 1 1/2hrs, but I will be uploading the lot at the end of this month. My broadband download speed is rated 8mbs (actually 6mbs).
You may not be aware that there are ways that enable you to only upload changed files, and although not on topic for this list, they can be discussed on LUG at http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/WUL/ Ron Ferguson http://www.fergys.co.uk/ -----Original Message----- From: Dennis Sutton Sent: Thursday, August 25, 2011 1:20 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Splitting Files Ron, My single tree file consists of 11176 individuals.
