New Photo app - upload speed to iCloud photos really so slow? I installed the new Photos app and imported my Aperture library (about 50.000 photos altogether. As I had a bad experience when my hdd with my pictures was stolen, I want to upload all of them to iCloud. (I am not a professional photographer)

So far so good: but in the last three days, only about 5000 photos were uploaded. In other words: 30 days to go...

Is this to be expected? 

Does anybody has any experiences with uploading that many photos?

I am obviously uploading via ethernet (1000 baseT) and the internet connection is not nearly saturated.
Just realized, it is on my side and my upload is saturated since I installed Photos - so it is not Apple's fault:



If I am not mistaken, it should be done in about 12-15 days.
