FTP transfers and CPU usage

Hosting Support

Hey,

I am using the free hosting plan, and I want to create a backup of my htdocs folder using FileZilla.

The folder is quite big to download, and since Im using the free hosting plan, I want to know if downloading files using a FTP manager like FileZilla will use any of my free site resources, like CPU usage?

I just dont want my domain to get suspended thats why Im asking.

Thanks

Using FTP to upload and download files doesn’t use the CPU limit as far as I understand it.

That’s reserved for the actual processing of the website
