[barcoded]

Looks like in those benchmarks Oxen.AI makes a misguided assumption that benchmarking DVC is (roughly...?) the same as benchmarking DVC<>DAGShub (server side made by a different company). To my understanding DAGShub is a bottleneck there. They didn't care to benchmark DVC against an S3 bucket or a similar cloud storage that is more widely used. I wonder if it's because DAGShub makes this whole setup wayyy slower

Oxen dev here - let me add some benchmarks for DVC backed by an S3 bucket. I did it awhile back and we were still faster, but agree it's a good benchmark to have.

Fundamentally even adding and committing data locally is slower, even before the push. But I agree the remote matters too.
