What is the problem you are having with rclone?
I am uploading files to google drive and when I use --vfs-cache-mode full or --vfs-cache-mode writes the file I am uploading will copy to the cache location at the rate of --bwlimit and the upload won't start until the entire file is in the cache. Once the file is complete in the cache it is uploaded at my maximum internet speed, ignoring --bwlimit while the next file will copy to the cache once again at the --bwlimit.
In other words, my goal is to have the file copied to cache at maximum drive speed and then uploaded using --bwlimit or I would even be happy if both the file copied at --bwlimit to cache and upload occurs at --bwlimit simultaneously rather than waiting for the file to be copied completely to the cache first.
What is your rclone version (output from rclone version)

Which OS you are using and how many bits (eg Windows 7, 64 bit)
Windows 10 64 bit
Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)

The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)
rclone copy --size-only --retries=1 --progress --fast-list --bwlimit=8.5M --log-file "C:\Program Files\rclone\logs\log.txt" "E:\Subs" "A:\Subs"
