Increasing Veeam merge performance

Slow merge performance in Veeam? Add in this DWORD and it’ll run one thousand times better:

Name: CloudConnectQuotaAllocationMode
Path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Veeam\Veeam Backup and Replication\
Type: DWORD
Default value: 0 -> 1

This changes the mechanism from limiting 512MB allocation every 15 seconds, to providing on tap quota Veeam needs to perform the merge.
