I have two queries and they are as below.

1. What is the compression ratio of the files in VBD, On-Demand and Store & schedule?

2. We want to donwload files through multiple jobs, hence wants to use multiple auth token. Will they work fine?

    1. Compression ratios depend heavily on the data being compressed, how redundant it is. It also depends on the data size, as very small sets will have more overhead. We use gzip to compress files. Just manually checking a few files now I observe compression ratios between 4 and 16.

    2. Yes you can use several tokens in parallel.
