Description Rainer Finke 2015-09-07 09:25:33 UTC 
Kio Version 5.13.0-3 in arch linux: When I copy a file from my disk (SSD) to webdav (owncloud) then before the file gets uploaded it will be duplicated temporarly first on the disk and only then it will be uploaded. If I upload a file with e.g. 8GB then my SSD needs to write as well 8GB before it will be uploaded. From my point of view this shouldn't be a write transaction on my SSD, I would expect only that the file will be read during upload.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Copy a file to webdav from main disk

Actual Results:  
All files will be duplicated temporarly on the same disk

Expected Results:  
Just read the file from the main disk and upload it directly. This will save a lot of write transactions on my SSD
