Compression. One is an uncompressed protocol, the other is highly compressed.

Is it more than if you use the -X with forwarding?

@scottalanmiller I'll have to try it on my VM when I get a chance to restart my computer...Oracle Vbox is being annoying, machines won't start except for right after a reboot of the host OS. Haven't figured out where the issue is yet.
