Help with SCP command

Hi,
I have around 100 files which are aroun 10 MB in size and need to SCP all those files to another machine.

Could you please suggest which way is efficient to do?

1. Gzip each file and transfer one by one.
2. Tar all the files together and then gzip it and send one HUGE file.

Basicaly i need to know if there is any problem if we transfer huge files through SCP command.

Thanks in Advance,
Robin Paulose
