Dave, have you tried connecting the Chirp cable to a USB 3.0 port on Win10? 3.0 is a lot faster. Ignore this if you have already tried it :-)

Interesting.  When I run CHIRP directly on the Mac, the upload time is
about 4 times faster: 1 min 5 sec.

Must be something going on in CHIRP or Windows 10 or Parallels when I
run it that way.  I usually do all radio programming in Windows 10, but
when CHIRP is the only way, maybe directly on the Mac is better?  I
don't see any slow action for other radio programming, CHIRP or RT
Systems, when running on Windows 10.
