Ah, I believe it is merely a simple matter of feedback diction from s3cmd.

When I removed the --no-check-md5, the INFO gathering delay was significantly 
higher (indicating to me it was indeed then calculating md5 values).

So, with --no-check-md5 it is just doing the stat() work.

BTW, I really appreciate the "INFO: " addition!
