8 megabyte/s or 8 megabit/s?
The zip file count really does matter, both in the number of file operations that need to be done and how many transactions the sync code needs to rummage through to get everyone in sync. Even a smallish file can mean a lot of processing, and it isn't simply a matter of how long does it take to transmit the data from one end to the other. In any case, SwissDisk is free for the 50 MB size (plenty large for OF's needs) and easy to set up, so you can do a careful comparison for yourself, if you can devise a methodology. My guess is that there will not be a substantial difference.
