Upload and download chunk size.

This controls the maximum size of payload in SFTP protocol packets.
The RFC limits this to 32768 bytes (32k), which is the default. However,
a lot of servers support larger sizes, typically limited to a maximum
total package size of 256k, and setting it larger will increase transfer
speed dramatically on high latency links. This includes OpenSSH, and,
for example, using the value of 255k works well, leaving plenty of room
for overhead while still being within a total packet size of 256k.
Only use a setting higher than 32k if you always connect to the same
server or after sufficiently broad testing.
For example using the value of 252k with OpenSSH works well with its
maximum packet size of 256k.
If you get the error "failed to send packet header: EOF" when copying
a large file, try lowering this number.
Make sure to test thoroughly before using a value higher than 32k,
and only use it if you always connect to the same server or after
sufficiently broad testing. If you get errors such as
"failed to send packet payload: EOF", lots of "connection lost",
or "corrupted on transfer", when copying a larger file, try lowering
the value. The server run by [rclone serve sftp](/commands/rclone_serve_sftp)
sends packets with standard 32k maximum payload so you must not
set a different chunk_size when downloading files, but it accepts
packets up to the 256k total size, so for uploads the chunk_size
can be set as for the OpenSSH example above.
