Is iCloud capping the upload speed from a photo Library?

I finnaly decided to purchase additional storage on iCloud and sync my photos library.

I am syncing from an MBP to icloud with the MBP being wired with an upload speed of 565Mbps.


My photo library is about 1.3Tb, however, it only uploads 11 photos a min :(

Does iCloud cappes the upload speed from a photo Library?

Uploading to iCloud is not a simple FTP operation that uses every ounce of speed available to it.


The upload is also a smart process where lots of data integrity checks and balances are performed to avoid issues.
