Description

Keybase GUI Version: 4.3.2-20190819141105+b1c5c7c912

On two different machines, same issue, no difference if using Proxy or Direct connections.
When you "past" a large file in the KBFS normally you'd see the uploading indicator that the KBFS sync was running in the background.

Since last update this seems broken.
The network shows the upload is still ongoing but the tray icon show's as if it was already uploaded.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Windows tray behavior while a large file is still uploading through KBFS, comparing the network activity with the tray icon state. Trace the GUI's upload-status entry point and determine where the indicator changes to completed. Done means the tray continues to show uploading until the transfer has actually finished.
