Subject: [NTSysADM] OT unix commands?

When running a 'cp' from one lan to another over a 100MB circuit my bandwidth 
utilization is 3MB but when running a 'ftp' to the same destination I utilize 
over10MB of the same circuit?
Why would an IBM AIX cp command be so different from an IBM AIX ftp command as 
far as same files to the same locations over the same networks??
Doesn't really make any sense to me??
