Uploading to Yandex is much slower than using its website

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

I'm trying Yandex to see if it's worthy. Uploading from Yandex website easily reaches my upload speed of ~10MB/s, but when using rclone copy it's below 0.6MB/s. How to fix that?

Run the command 'rclone version' and share the full output of the command.

  • rclone v1.67.0
  • os/version: opensuse-tumbleweed 20240310 (64 bit)
  • os/kernel: 6.7.7-1-default (x86_64)
  • os/type: linux
  • os/arch: amd64
  • go/version: go1.22.4
  • go/linking: static
  • go/tags: none

Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)

Yandex.

The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)

rclone copy -P "/path/to/file.ext" yanfree:path

Please run 'rclone config redacted' and share the full output. If you get command not found, please make sure to update rclone.

[yanfree]
type = yandex
token = XXX

I am not a yandex backend user but there's a commit recently merged. Why dont you trying with the latest beta?

Thank you. I confirm Beta with the User-Agent trick fixed this issue, upload speed is fast as expected.

I hope someone can find a similar solution for OneDrive, the other provider I'm trying which is affected by the same issue. At least it's less slow (3.5MB/s).

yandex guarantees good speed only when using its own programs. no such guarantees are given for third-party programs.
I have read about many cases where real limitations were found that were not related to anything other than the program used.
