See https://github.com/owncloud/client/issues/5226 for more discussion of this
issue.
"Connection closed" message when syncing files
---------------------
This message can be caused by using chunks that are too big or time-outs that
are set too liberally. You can configure the chunking behavior of the client in
the config file. For example, change these settings:
+----------------------------------+--------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| ``chunkSize`` | ``10000000`` (10 MB) | Specifies the chunk size of uploaded files in bytes. |
| | | The client will dynamically adjust this size within the maximum and minimum bounds (see below). |
+----------------------------------+--------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| ``minChunkSize`` | ``1000000`` (1 MB) | Specifies the minimum chunk size of uploaded files in bytes. |
+----------------------------------+--------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| ``maxChunkSize`` | ``50000000`` (1000 MB) | Specifies the maximum chunk size of uploaded files in bytes. |
+----------------------------------+--------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| ``targetChunkUploadDuration`` | ``6000`` (1 minute) | Target duration in milliseconds for chunk uploads. |
| | | The client adjusts the chunk size until each chunk upload takes approximately this long. |
| | | Set to 0 to disable dynamic chunk sizing. |
+----------------------------------+--------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Setting ``maxChunkSize`` to 50000000, for example, will decrease the
individual chunk to about 50 mb. This causes additional overhead but
might be required in some situations, for example behind CloudFlare which
has been seen limiting upload chunks to 100mb. In other situations,
limiting ``targetChunkUploadDuration`` can help to avoid time-outs.
