Trying to setup kopia for the first time here after using duplicacy for awhile. Connecting to b2 via the s3 backend. Seems to work totally fine if it’s some smaller files:
sudo kopia snapshot create /data/raid/config/
Snapshotting root@barncat:/data/raid/config ...
* 0 hashing, 17421 hashed (4.2 GB), 0 cached (0 B), uploaded 2.9 GB, estimated 4.2 GB (100.0%) 0s left

sudo kopia snapshot list

But as soon as I try to upload a directory of flac files, it just hangs. I let this run for an hour and it doesn’t look like it uploaded anything?
sudo kopia snapshot create /data/raid/storage/music_archive/
