Is it possible to add? Or too complex/impossible?
That would speed up FTP uploads/downloads a lot.

FTP only supports one concurrent upload/download per connection. Since TC is a connection-oriented client, you will have to open multiple connections (e.g. via background transfer manager) for multiple parallel transfers.

ghisler(Author): Yep, this is what I am doing now sometimes. But I still prefer to use FTP clients like ws_ftp or fireftp to upload a large amount of small files (e.g. some website) because TC is taking much more time for doing the same in one thread.. especially if server is far away from my location. Opening multiple parallel threads manually, is not really convenient and gives a lot of troubles. You should know that if you tried once.

Anyway, thanks for your reply!
