I don't think there is any difference in performance, but I do know that I would keep all operations local to the same server than have them go across the network. Depending on your task, the first thing would be to copy any remote files to the local server. Or, the last thing would be to copy local files to the remote server.
Again, this is to keep as much file processing on the local server rather than through network traffic.

The access would be in terms of cffile and some zipping using a java based zip util.
