The overhead in data size is insignificant. The processing overhead
(parsing several thousand HTTP requests, looking up & opening several
thousand files instead of just one on both the server & client side, and
building the image on the client side) is not.

The bottleneck to the nearest mirror is our local 100MB/s ethernet network,
and still Jigdo was 2-3 times slower than downloading a single ISO from
the same mirror.
