Same experience. I tried it on DO droplets (1, 2, 4 and then 16GB of RAM to see if I'm nuts), computer I'm working on (16GB RAM) and from a RPi (that was for fun though). Every single time it was painfully slow. It took it about 1h to sync a folder with about 100 files, under 30MB total across 4 computers. Not to mention that minor modifications appeared only after 15 minutes (small text files). BTSync worked great, but I wouldn't trust it with something sensitive. What did you end up using?

> What did you end up using? Long story short, I went from an "all cloud" (Google + Dropbox) setup to a "all mine, no NSA" setup. Now I've decided that counter zealotry doesn't have that much for it, and I'll try to balance privacy with best of breed services, without trying to end up with all my eggs in one basket. Not doing that ensures I keep interop and portability in mind. My end-result is calendar via Google (only solution I can get collaboration and invites working properly), files via Dropbox, mail with Fastmail (much better than Gmail) and contacts via Baikal on my own hosted server. Fastmail is adding support for calendering and contacts via CalDAV and CardDAV, but I've yet to fully investigate that. It's a moving target for me, but currently it's been stable for a few months, and I'm mostly happy.
