File size getting doubled while upload start

Hello, i need to upload some of my video files to GDrive for backup

when i start to upload after a while rclone makes rarely or 1/4 chance makes doubled my upload size, like if the file is 20 GB it makes 40 even 35 or 60 someohw.

i use latest version

here is my code

rclone move destination: target: --buffer-size=32M --drive-chunk-size=16M --drive-upload-cutoff=1000T --drive-pacer-min-sleep=700ms --checksum --check-first --drive-acknowledge-abuse --drive-stop-on-upload-limit --no-traverse --tpslimit-burst=0 --retries=3 --low-level-retries=10 --checkers=14 --tpslimit=3 --transfers=7 --fast-list -P

hi, what is the output of rclone version

perhaps rclone is doing retries.
a debug log would show you exactly what rclone is doing and the reason for doing it.

rclone v1.66.0

  • os/version: ubuntu 24.04 (64 bit)

any answer ? im still having issue

any answer ?? i didn't find solution yet

Share the full debug log file and you might get more help..

where is the location at ?

You have to run the command you want output for.

You have to add -vv to get 'debug' log info.

You either copy and paste it as it might be small.

You can run --log-file /some/directory/rclone.log and generate a log file.

There is a reason we have the help and support template and it explains the steps and collects all the information up front as we put a lot of time and effort into that and generally if the OP doesn't put in the effort, I rarely put in the time to even reply as you waste your time and my time.
