so, the other night, I added a folder of about 5,000 photos to the Apple Photos app on my Mac and I could see the photos and videos uploading in real-time on my Mac or iPhone (synced with iCloud). It took maybe a an hour or two, but it was fast with 280 Mbps upload speed.

So, I add the rest of my media library of about 100,000 photos and videos. They copy into Photos fine, and the status says Uploading... but the number being uploading isn’t going down, and I’m only seeing a few videos upload over the course of several hours. This is over the same upload speed.

I tried turning iCloud off on my Mac, then back on, but the situation hasn’t improved.

What’s the dilemma here?
