Hi,

lot of small files ore big ones? If lots of small ones it takes more time to copy
because mc copies one by one, so always starting a new copy process, then stopping,
starting again ... using systems copy command is much faster then.   

If only a few but big files are slow to copy there should be a small difference
between mc and system.
