If you want to "compare apples with apples", I suggest using the
lower-level g_bus_get() and g_dbus_connection_call[_sync]() instead of
GDBusProxy. The design and priorities of sd-bus and GDBus are not really
very similar, but GDBusProxy is certainly not the closest equivalent you
can get.

Also, if your application profile is such that (a) D-Bus is a
significant factor in performance, and (b) sending 50 synchronous D-Bus
messages per connection is anywhere near realistic, then you are
probably not using D-Bus the way it is designed to be used.
