Seeking a way to speed up list objects process with S3

hello and welcome to the forum,

is this a one time sync or to be run on a schedule?

assuming reoccurring syncs, once the first sync is done, for each additional sync, how many files would need to be synced?

for the first sync, this might help

one option is to write a script, as shown in this post
