I have a few qualms about rclone:
You can already perform parallel transfers quite trivially by typing "find .. | xargs -P$(nproc) -n 1 rsync ..", carefully managing sync folder sets and just being a Unix god in general like me.
It doesn't seem reasonable to expect people to use and install it, when we can just use rsync.

This solution sucks in a number of different ways, and is downright incorrect. I'm baffled by the frequency at which these hacky parallel commands are recommended when rclone exists, works perfectly fine, and has literally no runtime dependencies.
