Curious slight difference in sizes on sshfs remote/local and rclone remote. I mounted rclone as sftp, I think my next attempt will be to mount that directory as webdav to see if there's a speed difference. I also belive there are lots of options for optimizations, but I was trying to see what the baseline is.
Let me know if you're interested in seeing more!
