@ -102,3 +102,15 @@ Amazon cloud drive has rate limiting so you may notice errors in the
sync (429 errors). rclone will automatically retry the sync up to 3
times by default (see `--retries` flag) which should hopefully work
around this problem.
Amazon cloud drive has an internal limit of file sizes that can be
uploaded to the service. This limit is not officially published,
but all files larger than this will fail.
At the time of writing (Jan 2016) is in the area of 50GB per file.
This means that larger files are likely to fail.
Unfortunatly there is no way for rclone to see that this failure is
because of file size, so it will retry the operation, as any other
failure. To avoid this problem, use `--max-size=50GB` option to limit
the maximum size of uploaded files.
