Try this below code, you will get better performence:

private void Upload144_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    OpenFileDialog fileobj = new OpenFileDialog();
    fileobj.InitialDirectory = "C:\\";
    //fileobj.Filter = "Video files (*.mp4)";
    //fileobj.ShowDialog();

    if (fileobj.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
    {
        if (fileobj.CheckFileExists)
        {
            string test = Properties.Settings.Default.Connection;
            SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(test);
            con.Open();
            string correctfilename = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(fileobj.FileName);
            SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("Insert into Path(ID,Path5) VALUES   ((select isnull(MAX(id),0) + 1 from Path),'\\Videos\\" + correctfilename + "')", con);

            cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();

            string path = Application.StartupPath.Substring(0, Application.StartupPath.Length - 10);
            con.Close();

            //For Progressbar
            DataTable dt = new DataTable();
       //   SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd);
       //   da.Fill(dt);

            timer5.Enabled = true;

            // FOR FtpServer File Upload::
            string uploadfile = fileobj.FileName;
            string uploadFileName = new FileInfo(uploadfile).Name;

            string uploadUrl = "ftp://ftp.infotech.com/";
            FileStream fs = new FileStream(uploadfile, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);
            try
            {
                long FileSize = new FileInfo(uploadfile).Length; // File size of file being uploaded.
                Byte[] buffer = new Byte[FileSize];

                fs.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);

                fs.Close();
                fs = null;
                string ftpUrl = string.Format("{0}/{1}", uploadUrl, uploadFileName);
                FtpWebRequest requestObj = FtpWebRequest.Create(ftpUrl) as FtpWebRequest;
                requestObj.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile;
                requestObj.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("test@sample.com", "test@123");
                Stream requestStream = requestObj.GetRequestStream();
                requestStream.Write(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);

                requestStream.Flush();
                requestObj = null;
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                //MessageBox.Show("File upload/transfer Failed.\r\nError Message:\r\n" + ex.Message, "Succeeded", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information);
            }
        }
    }
