I backed up my iPad to the cloud and then last night I backed it up to my Mac for good measure. My question is, is restore from the computer going to be faster than the cloud? I'm thinking it has to be since nothing has to be downloaded, just copied across USB. My iCloud restore for my 5s took overnight and I'd hate to not fully use my Air until tomorrow.

EDIT: I found my post from a while back on this. I don't always get email responses on my threads even though I set instant notification. A couple users told me Computer restore is much faster. Sorry for the duplicate post.
