I confirm that adding the list shown below to the .SyncIgnore file of each synced folder (on each machine) solves most problems... until a new version fixing these issues is provided by our beloved dev team ;-).
However, BTsync 1.3.94 will still fail when special file names are encountered, for example a file named "Plot Kag 2F*", with a star in the name, will lead to an infinite loop and 100% CPU usage. Adding a rule in .SyncIgnore or renaming the file and restarting BTsync solve this problem.
For the time being, it is a good idea to Enable Debug Logging when a sync fails to determine which file/folder is raising an issue and to solve it by renaming the file or adding a rule in .SyncIgnore.
I just regret is that it is not possible to set a .SyncIgnore file within the iOS app.

Issue Syncing From Osx To Linux With 1.3.67
in Sync Troubleshooting

Hello @RomanZ,
I deleted the files "Plot Kag 1F*" about 2 days ago and unfortunately I did not keep a copy of the logs. So I re-created a file with that name from the one I renamed to solve the issue (originally a Mathematica file produced long time ago on Mac OS 9, w/o extension). BTsync now displays an Info icon in front the folder telling that it has to upload the file "Plot Kag 1F*" to my laptop (27.6 kB). I use BTsync 1.3.94 on a Mac Pro 2 x 2.66 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon running OS X 10.8.5. This is like this for more than an hour.
On my laptop, a MacBook Pro Retina 2.6GHz Intel Core i7 running OS X 10.9.2, BTsync 1.3.94 tells that this folder was synced successfully an hour ago.
On the Mac Pro, I find the following lines in the logs (related with this file):
The CPU is not at 100% now.
I then moved the file to a non-synced folder and immediately BTsync reported that the folder was synced.
I then created a new folder, moved the "Plot Kag 1F*" file into it and added this new folder to the list of synced folders to launch a test from scratch between the same machines. I got the following logs:
Surprisingly, the file was finally uploaded to the laptop after spending some time with the usual message. But I kept getting these messages "no entries for path…".
Hope this helps.
