* `chunk` - Enables [[chunking]] when storing large files.
`chunk=1MiB` is a good starting point for chunking.
* `partsize` - Specifies the largest object to attempt to store in the
bucket. Multipart uploads will be used when storing larger objects.
This is not enabled by default, but can be enabled or changed at any
time. Setting `partsize=1GiB` is reasonable for S3.
* `partsize` - Amazon S3 only accepts uploads up to a certian file size,
and storing larger files requires a multipart upload process.
Setting `partsize=1GiB` is recommended for Amazon S3; this will
cause multipart uploads to be done using parts up to 1GiB in size.
Note that setting partsize to less than 100MiB will cause Amazon S3 to
reject uploads.
This is not enabled by default, since other S3 implementations may
not support multipart uploads or have different limits,
but can be enabled or changed at any time.

* `keyid` - Specifies the gpg key to use for [[encryption]].
