    I might've fixed it.
    I logged out of dropbox then uninstalled and reinstalled dropbox.
    Logged back in.
    It has a lot of indexing to do but it is moving quickly, I'll let it run overnight and reassess in the morning.

The slow syncing issue came back. But once again doing the following solved it. Hopefully it doesn't happen every 2 months....

  1. logged out of dropbox on desktop app (preferences > accounts > sign out)
  2. uninstalled drobox
  3. reinstalled dropbox
  4. logged back in
