Tune Checkpointing

Checkpointing is the process where transfers that failed due to a communication failure can be restarted at the last checkpoint record. It is especially useful for large files, but it can slow down transmission speed dramatically.

For a maximum increase in the rate of transfer, turn checkpointing off completely by setting the Checkpoint Count to zero.

However, if you are transferring a large file, being able to restart from the last checkpoint may well justify a decrease in transfer rates. In this case, you can minimize the speed loss by choosing the highest checkpoint value appropriate for the size of your file.
