  • I don’t think you’ll be complaining on any of them. Was having gigabit nice? Of course, but 350 is plenty. Most services won’t even transfer that quickly to you and you can run a lot of video streams on that.

    But the main way to tell would be if your router has a traffic meter on it since it has all devices going through it. Otherwise if you’re mainly on PC you can use the task manager to see how much is going on and out


  • Proton and its services have been pretty good. Some things to know about proton mail:

    • Search is only for titles, as content is encrypted
    • You can do search in the body in your browser. It downloads your email into the browser and searchers locally. It takes a while to do this and build up indexes. I haven’t had too much issue searching for things though.
    • Since they don’t read your email, no automatic calendar events if there isn’t a .ics

    The VPN had been great

    The storage isn’t enough for me to be able to move off of my main cloud provider. There also isn’t a way to pin a file on Android for it - and the 500gGB of space is less than I use

    The Pass app is handy and it’s easy to make aliases, though it often doesn’t know to fill in, doesn’t do it, or something, and I need to open the app to copy paste. Pretty trivial though.

    I’m sticking with them. I don’t really have a reason to leave. The aliases are really nice, the catch is that it’s not easy to have them go to a sub email address that I use - it has to go to your primary email. Not a huge deal though.






  • I’ve done a lot of work and no, that is not normal.

    A few things: First - SQL server has tools for migrating data that’s pretty fast. SQL bulk copy can use some of these. Check to see if the built in db tools are better for this.

    SQL bulk copy can handle way more than 15,000 records

    Why are you wrapping a data dump in a transaction? That will slow things down for sure.

    You generally shouldn’t be doing huge queries like that to where you’re nearing the parameter limit.

    Can you share the code?
