Functionality
The idea of Light-weight Sync is implemented in OneSync. It basically means that for each sync process, only modified and created files are copied over and stored in the intermediate storage. So, if a user has a folder of 10GB, after the first round of sync, because of the Light-weight Sync, only the files that he or she modifies will be copied over. Hence, as long as the user only modifies or creates files which have total file size that is less than 2GB, he or she will be able to sync the 10GB folder through the DropboxDropbox (storage provider)
