I've recently upgraded manually to rclone v1.50.2 from the version included in Ubuntu 19.10 (rclone 1.47) and am confused by the new output.
what I see now is this
$ rclone --transfers=5 --rc move . gcrypt1:/ -P --delete-empty-src-dirs

i.e. there's a transferring a checking thread at same position as each transferring thread on the same file.
On 1.47 It seemed that I generally only saw transferring threads until it was finished then a checking would pop up temporarily and then disappear.
the other question is, why are the number of checks so much larger than the number of files I have? on 1.47 they would always be the same (or equal to the number of files already transferred)
Wondering if this is an actual change in underlying behavior or just a visual change but not anything practical?
Wondering what would happen if I set --transfers=50 with the same command line. for 1.47 it worked as I'd expect, showing 1 thread of execution for each transfer and popping up a checker as each file finished, would I now see 50 checker lines (even though I wouldn't be specifying --checkers=50)?
