You're lucky. Most of the time my kio powered transfers just die. Single small
files are fine. If I copy anything large, like an entire folder, or an iso,
over ssh or smb, it almost always just dies.

I gave up on it. I just use nemo file manager for anything to do with remote
FS. It's too frustrating.

I know there are other features concerning KIO slaves that people don't want to
give up, when you cant do file operations with a file manager, that's kind of a
moot point.
