Each sock.Put would be a different connect/disconnect, not good.
What makes you think that?

Let me clarify what I meant.
Once a client and a server get connected that is fine and can stay connected even when nothing is being sent.
"Each sock.Put would be a different packet."
instead of connect/disconnect
AFAIR, going back to tinkering with sockets in Python, the amount of data sent in a large number of packets before errors is much less than the same amount of data sent in a single packet in the same amount of time.
Maybe something similar is uploading data to a server.
FileZilla does not have the ability to zip/unzip.
I tried uploading a directory/sub directories with several hundred files, took forever. The zip size is very close to the unzipped.
Zip it up and it went fairly fast and on the server I could unzip it with cpanel.
The biggest chunk I usually send is about 1GB and over 16,000 files. This of course is not a "socket" but it may be comparable to some extent.
I don't have any test data from before but I think the large packet was much faster than a large number of packets.
