I am syncing to a NAS so notice the gain even in such an environment.

As part of this enhancement, I added writing some statistics to the log file about the files copied, and (when you get your hands on the new release) would be interested on the gains others see on their own libaries. I am not sure how representative my own library is although at ~12000 books it is defnitely non-trivial. As I run this off a NAS that is not the fastest of beasts any reduction in I/O across the network produces significant performance gains. Those using Dropbox where the network will be even slower should hopefully notice the effect even more.
