I sync files and folders from my iMac to an external HD on an ethernet connection and a MacBook Air on my wifi network. When I run jobs for the external HD over ethernet, the scanning is very fast--it's immediate. When I run jobs to the MacBook Air over wifi, FFS scans through all the files and folders assigned, sometimes taking 25-30 seconds. Is this because some jobs are over ethernet and others are wifi? Why does the wifi task scanning take so much longer? Am I doing something wrong? Thanks.

Or is this just the difference between syncing over wifi and an ethernet connection?
