My read of that is that there’s an algorithm written for local memory that is
executing on network data. Even on the same local network, there are several
orders of magnitude in the latency of those classes.
When I’ve needed to pull huge amounts of data out of tarsnap, I’ve done it from
the same AWS Region as tarsnap. It’s still very slow. (Or was ages ago when I
was testing.)
