If Microsoft is determined to make money from One Drive, could they please improve the product? My work laptop routinely pegs a core doing who knows what. When there is something to backup, the throughout is beyond atrocious.
Microsoft has all of the apis available to monitor changes on its own file system. Why does their solution seemingly run naive file comparisons to detect changes?
