Yes, I suspect a similar behaviour, also video files doing this would be a few megabytes at a time, which is inefficient use of bandwidth server-side.

But I guess unless a LWD dev comes in and can knock this one out of the park, we would never know (aside from someone messing with upload/downloads and testing it all - still doesn't actually answer the original question though.)
