synchronize/compare timeouts

At some point in the last month our WinSCP scripts started failing due to timeouts during the compare process. I see that there is a request for a keep alive during the compare process but I was wondering if there was a work around or a fix to this issue?

this seems to be the same issue I am seeing: https://winscp.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8715

WinSCP version 4.3.5 build 1463

Sorry, there's no workaround.
