I contend that if you unzip it on Windows first, the transfer will take AGES longer because you will have 1000's of individual files to move. Even if the size is not that much different, the overhead of each file will add many factors of time increase. That is my experience; YMMV.

Subject: OT: Unzipping of Linux database patches
We are migrating our databases from Windows to Linux. I have downloaded the Oracle database media to a Windows workstation. Can I unzip the install media on the Windows PC or should I transfer it to Linux first?
