Download speed is down to 20KB/sec
It started out at 900KB/sec (acceptable if not still pretty darn slow) and then rapidly descended all the way to a low of 20KB/sec. It took me five minutes to download a 23MB song for a video project. Is this normal? I've started a second download of a very short video (7 MB) and Dropbox is hovering around 60KB/sec. My…

I have a huge file in Dropbox. If I changed only a small portion, let's say 10 bytes from offset at 1GB position. Will Dropbox only upload the changed portion or upload the whole file again? Thanks.

One issue I seemed to have, but am not…
