My frustration grows...
I have decided to cancel my DB account and I'm now in the process of moving everything to a competittor service.
I decided to also take this oppertunity to reorganise all my data. This required a full sync to a Windows machine I have. However, I have about 600k+ files totaling just under 300GB and you will not believe how the client struggles to index and maintain all these files - the client crashes regularly. Yes, a lot of the files are duplicates, like Python "venv" directories in project directories. BTW: the machine specs is not an issue: 8-core with 32GB RAM.
But I find now that when I synced ALL files to a Windows workstation, the client just cannot cope with the large amount of files.
SO I don't see any practical way that DB can cope with my actual work demands going forward. This is it then for me - the last straw so to speak... Cheers DB.
