Delay syncing some files too often (Firefox profile)

[Webmaster33]

I backup my Firefox profile folder with Resilio Sync. 

Also I turned on, to keep deleted files,so they are kept in archive directory. 

However there are files, which change very often (even multiple times a minute), which are archived. 

The problem is, that those files are backed up very often, even more times a minute. 

 

So Resilio Sync keeps even more hundred copies of each file, and the archived files together takes even 100 Gb. It is set to expire files in 30 days. 

But even after a few days my hdd becomes full. 

 

Any idea how to exclude selected  files from being backuped or force to backup them only every 60 minutes? 

 

Waiting your answer. 

 

Thanks,

Sync puts all files that are changed to Archive so as not to miss out any files version. There is no way to filter that or set the frequency or archiving.
You can manually clear Archive every now and then, or set "sync_trash_ttl" to some 2 days.

The following isn't an option to solve the issue?

I tried the following, but seems it doesn't work, the files are still synced even each second, so more hundreds of same archive files are stored:

oh, somehow I misunderstood you and though you were talking about backup to Archive. 
Yes, you can use Ignorelist to ignore certain directories/files
