Abstract

Techniques to perform event-based synchronization of data are disclosed. In various embodiments, an indication is received, during the course of performing a synchronization event-based synchronization with a synchronization client, that a user of the synchronization client has provided an input associated with a request to access a file or other object the changes to which have not yet been downloaded completely to the synchronization client. Download of the changes to the file other object with respect to which the input associated with a request to access is associated is reprioritized, to enable the synchronization client to provide access to the file or other object more quickly than would have been possible without the reprioritization.
