iCloud Drive process cloudd stucks – Kill process restarts sync
Often I'm saving files to iCloud Drive.
Those files will not uploaded completely.
I have to kill the cloudd process to upload the files.
Anyone else with this problem?

Hello tanzblume! Thank you for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
We understand that it appears that your files aren’t completely saving to iCloud Drive, but they’re incomplete. We'd like to look into this with you to see how we can help.
If you check your files at iCloud.com, do files appear to be incomplete there, too? If so, let's try signing out of iCloud on your Mac, then sign back in to see if that has any effect:
Are the apps that you’re creating those files from completely up-to-date?
Is your Mac up to date with its latest macOS? You can check that here: Update macOS on Mac
Make it a great day!

Hi @tygb,
thanks for the link.
I used the Activity Monitor.
The owner of the cloudd process was my account.
