I tried grive, it only gives me ~1MB/s speed even on a Giga port US VPS. I got ~40MB/s when using Dropbox.
Google Drive won't likely give you the speed if that's what you're after.
Dropbox has some pretty sweet speeds. Google Drive is more about a complete experience (Docs, Photos, etc.).
I advise you to use https://github.com/odeke-em/drive as it is the best third party project going on for Google Drive, also the developer is very friendly and nice (in case you had any issue he will gladly help you out).
Once authenticated just type:
drive push -no-clobber BACKUP.tarThis will push the backup but it won't delete it from your local system. To improve overall speed try using multiple sessions. My speed with Drive were around 10MB/s (sometimes more, others less).
Hmmm

Where can I download this?
Thanks, that's really helpful!
I use https://github.com/prasmussen/gdrive to push a bunch of VM images to google drive nightly. It works great, I'm a big fan.
During the day I get 7-10MB/s, overnight its more like 17-25MB/s.
I use insynchq for Linux and windows. Works great. Does multiple threads for syncing faster speeds.
