Very slow sync speeds with large import

As I'm migrating from Aperture I moved ~50Gb of images into LrCC in one import. Images import to library fine, but the sync to cloud is incredibly slow - Task manager shows it topping out at ~0.5Mbps, whilst a quick speed check while the sync is running suggests upload speeds 15-20Mbps.

It has been syncing for a few days now (admittedly not 24/7) which is pretty annoying!

I've seen some people having almost an opposite problem - Lightroom sucking up all their bandwidth so they can't do anything else. I'd be happy to put up with this for a few hours to get it done!

Any ideas on how I can get this going faster?

    I've double checked with the engineers and apparently their servers are doing ok under the extra load, so can I get you to report your issue at Lightroom CC | Photoshop Family Customer Community  please?

    I think it may be best to wait a day or two. I have a feeling they are experiencing much higher traffic than expected and trying to fix it. It's slow even with one photo right now.
