I have only 2M bandwidth at home. I tested a 12M files, about 49 seconds to upload, and for finishing, 18s on desktop app, and 7 seconds on web. John (Zhong WU) has 10M bandwidth at home, I'll ask him to perform a test also, and I'll log a issue and take a look at it once V2 API migrated.

Hi,

As i once said before (in feedback page), using minus secure link
(https://minus.com) upload takes more time to complete, than on
non-secure. I even did a test on speeds:

* non-secure link, 100mb, chrome: 33 seconds. Upload speed ~3mb/s.
* secure link, same file, chrome: 13 minutes and 15 seconds. Upload
speed ~120kb/s.
* desktop app, same file: 4 minutes and 7 seconds. Upload speed:
~400kb/s. + ~1min. "Finishing uploading".

I believe it's fixable and it would be amazing if desktop app would work
as non-secure link (http://minus.com) does.
