How to optimize sample upload?

[YueYing]

Hi,

I am trying to upload samples (four fastq total to 40 GB of data per sample) onto BaseSpace. I am using BaseSpace CLI 0.8.10.local  (built on 2016-12-16 06:20).

Command evoked:

bs upload sample -p "Project" --allow-invalid-readnames sample*.fastq.gz

Gathering metadata and validating fastq files...

validated 5000000 reads

validated 10000000 reads

validated 15000000 reads

validated 20000000 reads

validated 25000000 reads

validated 30000000 reads

validated 35000000 reads

validated 40000000 reads

validated 45000000 reads

validated 50000000 reads

validated 55000000 reads

validated 60000000 reads

validated 65000000 reads

validated 70000000 reads

.

.

.

It went through the process of validating fastq files even though I am running with options --allow-invalid-readnames. How can I optimize this process please? It is taking 8 hours for me to upload a single sample which is not very logical.

Many thanks
