Great! One other question. How does it handle a flaky connection / backend? I looked through the code and didn't see any retry logic. I'd like to upload a 100GB file, but have run into trouble with other tools that don't retry. I'd like it to split it into < 5GB chunks which I see now that libcloud supports, and then also retry each of those chunks a configurable number of times. I'll have to talk to my hosting provider as well to see why uploading to object storage is so flaky, but I'm hoping I can also have the client be resilient in that case.
