Faster way of uploading via FTP? (CoreFTP & GlobalGold)

[HMBeaty]

Not sure if anyone knows a solutions to this or not, but for those of you who have GlobalGold Hosting or something similar, is there a faster way of uploading files via FTP or another way (other than FTP)?

At the moment, I'm using CoreFTP, which is what was suggested to me by GlobalGold, but it uploads files 1 by 1 after I queue everything up, whereas, with my previous host (HostGator), I was able to use FileZilla and able to transfer up to 10 files at a time. It currently takes me about 4-5 hours (probably because I'm on a somewhat slow connection) to upload all vBulletin files.

I spotted something in another thread the other day, when someone was explaining how they usually upgrade their board, that they would upload the entire .zip file and extract it via SSH. I have yet to try this. Anyone else tried anything similar? Or know of a faster way to get files uploaded?

Thanks in advance
