I think, if the copying process is executed on same machine (Source and Destination machine are same), then in this case, no network involvement is required.
But in this case, STAF Framework is also taking more time as compared to DOS command. If no network involvement is required for completing the request, then it should not be used for completing the request. Please check, whether the STAF framework service execution can be optimized according to the above mentioned process.
