Why are FTP files uploading slow?

Question

FTP

Why do all files via ftp take a very long time to load?
For example, 200 files, mostly php, with a total size of 30 meters were loaded in 20 minutes.
The same files were loaded through the file manager on the hosting site in a few seconds.
And so with every server with which I worked.
The problem is not solved when changing the ftp client. I mainly use WinSCP.
How to decide? Or how to quickly upload files to servers?

Answer 1

Well try the filezilla client . Are you uploading
via ftp or sftp? the last one loads the processor

Answer 2

The problem is the large number of files. Each file needs to be created, opened for writing, closed. And for all these commands, you need to make requests and wait for a response, the speed of which is affected by ping.
