recommend users not change the chunksize
Suppose A is 10 mb, and B is 20 mb, and the upload speed is the same. If B starts first, when A will overwrite the file it is uploading for the 1st chunk. Then A uploads the second chunk, and once A is done, B finishes the 1st chunk and uploads its second. We now have 1(from A), 2(from B), so data loss.
