QUESTION

Why is CuteFTP Home's Turbo Transfer mode not available in CuteFTP Pro?

ANSWER

All of the benefits of CuteFTP Home's preconfigured Turbo Transfer mode are available selectively in CuteFTP Pro. 

When CuteFTP Home's Turbo Transfer mode is enabled, files being transferred are split into four parts and depending on a predefined list of appropriate file types, Mode Z compression may be used. Turbo Transfer mode can be turned on or off but cannot be configured further.

CuteFTP Pro is much more configurable, allowing the use of multipart transfers selectively and files can be split into as many as eight parts. Additionally, the list of file types for which Mode Z compression is used is fully configurable.
