WAV is less compressed than FLAC (about 2 to 3 times larger typically), so WAV will use more network traffic, with more packets, and less space for buffering. FLAC will be much easier on the I/O subsystem (network or disk if reading directly), and will only require more CPU (although with less input data it may end up being a wash).
