Says about Filezilla:
FileZilla is known to be fairly fast, and can also resume downloads and handle very big transfers, I'm talking here higher than 4 GB. You can set both local and remote filters for things like images, explorer files or CVS and SVN directories or even create your own. FileZilla also includes a tool to compare directories in terms of file size or modification time.
The FileZilla application can guide you when setting up your network and lets you set speed limits in case you don't want to overload your bandwidth.
One thing really missing from FileZilla though is a scheduler to automatically set transfer times.
